I am trying to set up a touch screen windows 7 lenovo desktop for use by older users with no prior experiance of PC's. I would like Firefox to start on login and open in full screen mode, with all toolbars disabled. Is this possible? and if so how do I go about doing this?

If you close Firefox 4 while in full screen mode then the browser should start in full screen mode the next time. That setting is stored in localstore.rdf in the Firefox Profile Folder.

If you want to prevent toolbars from opening if you hover to the top then hide the full-screen-toggler with code in userChrome.css

Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line. 

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#fullscr-toggler { display:none !important; }
