Missing text in boxes in gmail

[cutiepyie]

Hi all,
when I use FF (version 16.0.2), Win 7 X64, to go to gmail.com to create, read my gmail at different times, when I get to the gmail home page & create a new msg or read one, it has boxes that are missing the text in them.

I can hold the cursor on a box and after a brief time it will give me the contents of the box, but it is really getting to be a pain in the neck to do this time and again. I don't know if there is a setting that is incorrect or what?

Any help greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,
Cindy

Hi I can see your problem, must be quite annoying as there is so many boxes!

Do you happen to have any plugins/themes installed?

Anything you installed recently prehaps a particular program/plugin?

Edit: Do you have AVG safe searched enabled? Taking a punt here but seen this

Have you tried?
