Since I installed 4.01, every-time I try to open a new tab, it shows as a new window in my task-bar. I don't like it showing that way! How can I change that?

You should be able to turn that off here:

orange Firefox button > Options > Tabs

or

Tools menu > Options > Tabs

Uncheck "Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar"

Does that fix it?
