this is the only issue I have with Firefox- on certain pages (Mozilla pages, the new tab page, Facebook, etc.), when I click on a link, there will be an incredibly ugly dotted border around the object. I've tried restarting in safe mode, and it happens across all versions of Firefox (regular, beta, and Aurora). I haven't had this issue with any other browsers, it's only Firefox, and I can't figure out why. any guesses?

That is an accessibility feature to display a focus ring around an object.

oh, thank you! I was able to set the value to 0 and it disappeared.
