In Firefox 5, the menubar and sometimes even the right-click options do not render above the screen content, making them unselectable. They momentarily appear for a fraction of a second, but make the menu unusable.

On more than one machine I am experiencing this non-rendering issue. I have disabled almost every addon and reverted to the default theme. Has anyone else experienced this issue and fixed it?

Going to Firefox bar > Options > Advanced > General and unchecking the Use hardware acceleration when available should fix it.
