- sudden onset

- affects FireFox the most, but appears to affect MS Outlook too; Chrome seems unaffected

- Fur_something test of graphics card seems ok

- yellow and some other boxes on Pelican show ok, other screen elements are missing; worst displays are in 2 different Email web sites I use.

- Goggle News is affected - boxes at top lack coloring
- Google IMage search always shows images normally
- Amazon is affected and some clickable balloons do not show up in FF (had to use Chrome to add some socks to my Wish List)
- IrfanView and Picassa seem fine; MS Word & Excel seem fine

- no matter what, I always see text boxes on the screen - it appears the fill or surrounds are the screen elements that do not display in FF

Only thing I can figure is that maybe FireFox treats the graphics card in a different way than Chrome (thought they all went thru the same Windows interface, but maybe not)
