Set your browser to full screen mode. Does the problem go away? I think it's most likely a contrast problem.
Could also be that your monitor "remembers" your browser.
Remember the old monitors, how they could "burn" the screen, reason why we used screensavers to avoid that? Well, believe it or not, this can also happen with LCD. The Only difference is that with LCD it can be solved. I had this problem a while back, when I saw a ghost look of the top bar of my browser appearing in other programs or on the desktop, just slightly but still visible. My monitor always go to screensaver mode after 10 min (black background with login window jumping around) and in power saving mode after a longer time, but this didn't avoid it, so it's possible to get it regardless how well you treat your monitor.
Attached is an example of someone elses monitor, although it wasn't as bad on my monitor.
I got rid of it by leaving the monitor on over night with a background of a nature scene, any other random screen will do. The problem hasn't returned yet and this is months later.
It could be that you have a ghost image like that (most visible on a plain gray desktop), which might cause the monitor to buzz once you have the program open that is related to it (or similar). I'm just guessing here, but I didn't want to rule out all possibilities.
