Each item on the menu bar consists of a number of squares with a capital letter A within the square. The drop down menus are OK but it's annoying to have to guess or remember which is which. I have just upgraded the OS to Snow Leopard, and Firefox has upgraded to 28.

Maybe your localstore.rdf is corrupted, unhide the hidden files and folders, go to your profile folder, close Firefox, try rename or delete the localstore.rdf file then restart Firefox.

I must admit the replies were rather too technical for me. I realised after that it was not a Firefox problem, as it applied to other applications also - though variably!. It has now resolved itself, but I don't know if it was through any of my actions. Thanks all the same.
