I just downloaded the most recent version of Firefox (5.0). Now I do not have an address bar at the top of the Firefox window. I also do not have the ability to page back. I get forced inYahoo serach & f1 is gone. F1 easily allowed me to send a webpage to any email address. PLEASE how do I return to the previous version of Firefox (the version before 5.0 that allowed me to do all of the above) --- I am going to stop using Mozilla Firefox & begin using Microsoft Explorer if there is nothing I can do -- HELP PLEASE!

Yahoo Toolbar messes up Location Bar Search

Remove the Yahoo Toolbar

  1. "Ctrl+Shift+A" (Add-ons Manager)
  2. Select Puzzle piece on left-side for Extensions List
  3. Find "Yahoo Toolbar" and click on "Uninstall" button, and restart Firefox. (if you really need to keep the Yahoo toolbar, you can hide the toolbar instead with customize, and still change all the search defaults as below)

Then to fix the default search engine used at the Location Bar, change the value of keyword.URL in about:config to one of the values shown in Location Bar search at MozillaZine.

  1. type in about:config into the location bar (in a new tab)
  2. if the warning message nonsense comes up uncheck the warn box before dismissing the dialog message with the "I'll be careful nonsense.
  3. filter on keyword
  4. right-click on keyword.URL and choose "modify" then paste in the Google search engine string of your choice.
  5. # filter on keyword
  6. right-click on browser.search.defaulturl and again choose "modify" then paste in the Google search engine string of your choice.
  7. right-click on yahoo.ytff.search.popup_src (if it exists) and again choose "modify" then paste in the Google search engine string of your choice, if adventurous might see if "reset" would remove and see if gone in next session (well not for those keeping the extension).

Avoiding the problems: Many software installations contain additional baggage know as crapware. The Yahoo Toolbar is packaged with Java picture

More information on ask.com, Yahoo Toolbars

More information on configuration variables available in about:config entries and for users not familiar with the process there is about:config (How to change).

You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and Firefox 5.0 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic *Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)
