unwanted outlines of movieclips and werid shapes appear on screen

When my site finishes loading, just before the animation begins, I see for a very short period of time (just a frame I guess) weird images, actually the outlines of some elements that are supposed to have alpha = 0, and a weird shape which I believe has something to do with a big gradient (also with alpha = 0) I´ve made a few changes and these weird images and outlines persist for a longer time..

I´ve got a print screen (with some effort), see attachment. Curiously that happens only in some computers and apparently only on FireFox

Does anyone has ever experienced something like that ?
What can it be ?

Thanks!

some other screen shots

please help !! I´ve put here more attachements.

I´ve tested on IE8, Opera and Chrome and nothing wrong happen.

That just happens of Firefox - but not in all computers. It doesn´t happen on my FireFox 3.6.3 with Windows 7 (does that make a difference?), and it does on my colleague Firefox 3.6.3 with win 7.

Could that be the Flash Player?

no, that's not normal. other than making sure the plugin is up to date, i'd just suggest either removing those elements from the display list entirely, or setting visible = false, rather than alpha = 0.

Thanks .. but I had already done that actually (i set visible = false, and then tweening AutoAlpha with greensock´s Tween Engine, which sets visible = true automatically), but nothing changed.
