Firefox and Thunderbird show selected menu items blank

This has happened before ... Firefox and Thunderbird today started
showing selected menu items as white text on a white background. I
could rant for days about the stupidity of this, but what's even
more exasperating is that it's next to impossible to find the place
wherin I can change this in the preferences.
I also have Mozilla's old browser, and it's not doing it.
The "theme" of my desktop may be the culprit, but I haven't a clue
what my default is, nor what will happend when I pick another one.
The change occurred after a series of resets that I had to invoke in
order to escape from lockups resulting from attempts to open a
large file (another question I had today).
Oh, yeah. It has been suggested that I disable the screensaver in
order to avoid these lockups; this new menu behavior first became
apparent after doing that.
Thanks,
George
