I usually blame any 3rd party plug ins or add-ons. It is possible that
an add-on could be responsible. You can start firefox in safe mode
using the command firefox -safe-mode. If you don't have the problem in
safe mode then you will need to start disabling, and enabling add-ons
and plug ins until you find the culprit.
