How Do I add or remove any of the top 6 lines at the very top of my screen when I go online with Firefox
At the top of my screen when using Mozilla Foxfire, I have the following lines Line ! starts with the word File Line two is the tabs in use, i.e. Google Email and Mozilla Firefox The next line down (#3( is a line that has an arrow to the left and shows the current web page on which I am working. Line $ is "Most Visited" sites Line 6 is ShopAtHome.com
What do we call these 6 lines and how do i add to them or delete them?

You can right click a toolbar to open the right-click context menu and set which toolbars to display.
- View > Toolbars
- Firefox > Options
You seem to be having the default toolbars like the Menu Bar (1) and the Tab Bar (2) and the Navigation Toolbar (3) and the Bookmarks Toolbar (4).
You didn't mention what is on toolbar 5 and toolbar 6 (ShopAtHome) seems to be ad-ware or malware.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.

Thank you so much. I right clicked on several of the bars but found that right clicking on the work "File" did the trick. That allowed me to uncheck the toolbars I wanted to delete from my screen. I will also follow your suggestion to run malware and my AVG Anti-spyware.
Again, Thank you. 35jeep
