I dont like this new version. Things pop up when they are not supposed to (and yes I have checked all the items on "tools" that I want or unchecked those I dont) and all my cut copy paste etc etc buttons are nowhere to be found even though I "add " them to the tool bar, still nothing. I cant function like this and want to go back to the old version, but I keep being redirected to the new one Help !

You want to go from Firefox 4 to Firefox 3.6? (I ask because your post's System Details mention Firefox 3.5.)

First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see Backing up your information.

Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older

Close Firefox 4, and uninstall it. Do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.

Then finally you can reinstall Firefox 3.6. Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, it should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.

Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!
