Updated to Firefox 4, I believe; original home page gone; news, side icons, info, toolbar at at top all gone. Now remains on a blank page with something about a game or something from Firefox. All my bookmarks, sites, etc. were on original, now can't get to anything. How do I get rid of Firefox & transfer my info to the Internet. This is not what I want!

You can right click the orange Firefox button to open the toolbar menu or use (F10) View > Toolbars.

  • Click the Menu Bar entry to make the Menu Bar visible. If other toolbars are hidden then make them visible as well.
  • Click "Tabs on Top" to remove the check mark and place the Tab Bar at its original position just above the browser window.
