I decided to upgrade to Firefox 4.0... now I cannot 1) figure how to get my tabs below the url line, 2) find a refresh button, and 3) get my status bar up at the bottom.

I've found a status bar addon, but it didn't work. I don't think I should be needing addons to make a browser work like it did before. These are not useful changes; these are just changes for change's sake...

Firefox 4 hasn't lost any features, they're just moved around. If you'd like to make it look like 3.6, here's a blog post that explains how to that http://blog.fligtar.com/2011/01/16/how-to-customize-firefox-4s-ui/

Refresh icon is to the right of the address bar (URL box), star, and to the left of the google box. It is a partial circle/arrow.
