My "back" and "forward buttons are disabled/not working on FF 4.0

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and installed/updated and when it started I no longer can use the "back" button (<-). The only way to get back to previous pages is to use "history"

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

You can also RIGHT click your mouse onto certain areas of a page in the window, and if there are pages to go back to, it will say Back, Forward, Reload and other options.
