I am surprised that alt-tab does not switch to another app for you. I
have used that to switch out of full screen applications and I would
not expect firefox/malware to have any way to make the window be able
to truly take over the screen.
In firefox about:config there are some options that might prevent full
screen from hiding the window manager controls even in full screen.
about:confg and search for fullscreen (browser.fullscreen.autohide
defaults to true).
