I am a facebook user, and as of today, every time I attempt to do anything, a pop-up for a "firefox toolbar" interrupts, and continues to open new windows, stopping me from any activity. It will not go away, and I do not know how to adjust my settings to make it stop. I do not know if it is Facebook issue, or a Firefox issue, and I do not want to go back to Explorer to be on facebook.

I had this very same problem, and I think it was because I did have the facebook toolbar ages ago but then it wasn't compatible with the latest firefox release so it stopped working.

It seems it has now been updated and is compatible again as when i went in to the add ons manager it was there, so I deleted it from my add ons and restarted firefox and it seems to have solved the problem :o)

Hope that makes sense
