Hi,

The issue has been resolved in Firefox 10 which is due for release in the next few days. Alternatively you can try the Firefox 10 beta: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/

To resolve this in Firefox 9, you may have to install Visual C++ 2005 SP1 or a relevant .Net Framework (see comment 33 @ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713167 )

Thanks, I will wait for Firefox 10. I really didn't like this last firefox update/version. Wish they would bring back the version of firefox that looked much cleaner. I also don't like the forward, back, refresh button placement and other things.

Thank you for your reply

You can undo a lot of changes in the user interface and get the appearance of Firefox 3 versions.

Firefox 4 and later use a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar.
During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.
If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.
Middle-click the Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.

To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:

• Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
• If the menu bar is hidden on Windows or Linux use "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
• Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
• Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
• Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise (Space or Separator) to get two distinct buttons.
