Firefox Window Unresponsive, firefox itself continues to work.
Past few days I've been running into a problem where firefox will sort of hang there. Everything within the browser works normally, I'm able to browse the web and all my addons continue to function, however I am unable to drag, minimize, maximize, or do anything regarding the actual windows placement on my computers screen, without using the windows 8 charm bar, which only allows me to minimize.
Upon Minimization and subsequent maximization I am granted a few seconds window in which the bar will resume responsiveness and I am able to drag the window accordingly. The time, however, it is short lived.
I have scanned my computer for Virus' and found none, and have even restarted firefox in Safe Mode; Though starting in Safe Mode seems to only exacerbate the problem as my few seconds window to get my browser in a size and place I'd like all but disappears.

Restarted computer, 100% sure this is a problem with the Windows OS. Will reopen ticket if discovered otherwise.

Update: Further examination has lead me to discover other programs, such as VLC, are also experiencing this problem. Though a few like Steam do not. This in the end has lead me to believe this is more a problem with the Windows 8 OS than a problem strictly related to Firefox.
Your System Details shows;
Installed Plug-ins
Shockwave Flash 14.0 r0 Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode; Press the <Alt> or <F10> key to bring up the tool bar. Followed by;
Windows; Tools > Options Linux; Edit > Preferences Mac; application name > Preferences
Then Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart
