Several words on most web pages have a green/blue/red tint in the middle of it. I thought it was my video card, but the problem goes away in Opera or IE. Anyone else have this problem? It is a little annoying.

Close Firefox.
Go Start>All Programs>Mozilla Firefox, click on Mozilla Firefox (safe mode).
Same thing?
Same problem!
Can you post a screenshot?
Tried, but the colors are extremely light and it does not clearly show up in a screen shot.
IE OK? Other programs OK?
Is it like a highlight, or some lettering have slightly different color?
All other programs are fine and your description is correct, some lettering have slightly different color, kind of reddish/green/blue. Any guess as to what is causing this?

Yes, as I said previously.
Fire fox maybe corrupted.
I would uninstall it, reboot and do a fresh install and see if that happens again.
...or create new profile.
Thanks Train, tried it, no change.
Did you perform clean install: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox?
Yes I did. I will try to install an older video card, to see if the problem is in my Nvidia GS 7900 card.
Give it a try, but since only Firefox is affected....I don't know...
With the new card, the problem is gone! Amazing!
Wow, interesting, indeed.
I think I found the real cause of the display problem. When the Nvidia driver is uninstalled it leaves behind two files; nvd3dum.dll and nvapi.dll located in the windows system32/drivers directory. I manually removed them (after uninstalling the Nvidia driver) and reinstalled the latest driver and the problem was gone. This explains why the problem was also gone with a new video card.
Also it seems that my Vista sleep problem is also gone.
Good going :)
Thanks for the update...
