Try in Safe mode, give a screenshot, and not sure if this is a FF issue, or just a driver, slow hardware thing.

Parts of the current website show up when mouse over the pictures.

Tried in safe mode no difference.

Using an Nvidia 7900GS with the latest drivers (178.24) for XP x64.
It's only on the Alpha I get these problems B2 and B3 for 3.1 are fine.

It seems like it could simply be your computer is being sluggish in changing 9often happens after hardware intensive things like games or rendering on slow hardware). But it does not really seem like a FF issue.

duped up as the other is new and has some regression ranges.
