In your Firefox 'Fonts and Colors' settings, did you set the background
color to something other than white?

So what you're saying is that you want that as your start page, but you
don't like the changes?

In that case, I still don't understand your complaint. The background
is very much white for me. Are you saying it used to have a color
background?

No it's default and it's checked "Use System Color"

it's simple like this, the color that were in the screen-shot was my
system color (the "window background color" that im using in windows
appearance,
before 3.5 Start page BG color was white, and now the white color has
gone and now it's visible the my system background color.

look im pointing a html fault that they've made, for the images that
they've use in start page the background color should be white, and it
should be set to white in the html.

thx.

In your reply to Chris Ilias, you indicated that FF is set to 'Use
system colors'. Uncheck that option. (Tools -> Options -> Content ->
Colors)

It is not an HTML fault, at all. It would be white, if you didn't
override it with the above preference. FF is doing *exactly* what it is
being told to do, to use the system window background color.
