Have Firefox 7.0.1. After a recent update, I noticed that my bookmark toolbar no longer shows both icon and text name. Have checked customize and icon plus text is selected. What am I missing? Thanks for the help. Bill Morrow

That option in the Customize Palette doesn't affect the Bookmarks Toolbar. You have this extension installed which is doing that.

My wife thanks you profusely! She is technologically challenged and doesn't do well with icons, even when the text shows up as you pass over them. I would not have thought to check for incompatible add-ons.

Much appreciated!
