I have an issue with FF. Whenever I have my mouse on the page (not the toolbar area) any selection I make gets altered in the following way:-

Text boxes - The cursor keeps moving to the left. "Radio" buttons - Selection keeps moving up.

This is only happening in FF, I am not seeing this behaviour in Chrome or IE.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions. You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
