I could not reproduce the issue. Is it reproducible on a clean profile? Is it windows theme related? From the screenshots, I presume you have the win xp theme.

Reporter, do you have any updates on this bug (as suggested in Comment 3)? Thanks
Hi AndreiD, I haven't put any effort into it yet. But the problem still exists in FF 7.0.1.

Please see if the issue is reproducible on a clean Firefox profile

If not the case, it might be some add-on/extension incompatibility or a faulty migration of the profile from another previous Firefox version.

We also had several people complaining about this using Firebug.
See e.g. https://groups.google.com/d/topic/firebug/3K4b_5Wmzio/discussion.
It seems to be related to hardware acceleration. When turning it off, the menus are displayed correctly. Though I didn't see that problem by myself yet, so I can't give any more info.

And we had another issue report of Firebug describing the same symptoms:
http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=5922
The reporter in our issue said he also can reproduce that on a fresh profile.
Bug 634858 and bug 775503 describe the same problem. And it can be fixed by disabling hardware acceleration. So it's unrelated to add-ons or themes.

Was this on a secondary monitor?

From what I saw by my testing for bug 800701, this was just on the secondary monitor, yes. And I could reproduce it on FF 17.0 but not on FF 20.0a1 using the same profile.
I didn't ask the original reporter of the Firebug issue if that was on a secondary monitor. Let me know if I should.
