Running FFox_31 on Ubuntu_14.04

THW site appearence in FFox appears as an bullet-points in an incomprehensible stretched-out noodle. Not so in OPERA or CHROMIUM. What's up?

That is under FFox THW_site appears as a stretched, scrolled 1-dim listing of topics without horizontal structure. What have you done?

Restart the browser.

It's just fine on Gentoo and Fedora, but the site did hace a few glitches yesterday.

If it's still happening then it's a local issue, not a site one.

THW display has been messed-up for days under FFox_31 on my XEON/gd55 box. Legacy AND965 system performs THW just fine. On XEION running FFox inside GNOME-Metacity flashback same as legacy system. All other websites (/. & Drudge & UTUBE & ARSTEK ....) appear normal. Too weird.

I run a cocktail of anti-malware proggies & allow no cache(history) and no cookies ... except allow THW temp. Did I say that right?

Same OS same Clam_AV, same GUI same RKHUNTER/CHKROOTKIT same browser same plugins(?) on my legacy AMD965 system and THW performs without issue --- perfectly std. display. THose plugins are NS/Badger/ADBlk/HTTPS/Ghostery ...

But on my Xeon ... THW is as stretched & strung out as a JAX krak-dealer on peyote.

Only real difference is I have APACHE_OO-4.1 on the XEON and LIBREOFFICE on the AMD965.
