You didn't provide us with any information regarding your Mac or which version of OS X you're using. However, if that's a screen capture it may indicate a problem with your graphics adapter. If your machine is still covered by the Apple warranty or Apple care, take it on in and let Apple look at it.

What MBP is it?

If this is one with the nVidia 8600, Apple has extended the warranty to 4 years on that video card.
