I too have a problem with graphics on Iceweasel. I had not tried creating a
new profile. Frankly, the easiest way to deal with the problem has been -
use another browser. I don't use Iceweasel very much anyway.
But it would be nice to have a solution, all the same. And I may try to use a
new profile to see whether it solves the problem (even if pro-tem).

Sorry, Barry. I am still not consistently pressing L instead of clicking.
I have not until recently had this problem. Something somewhere has obviously
changed. :-(
