I'm having two problems with Firefox 5.0.. First, there is no "awesome bar" on my home page.

Second, often I can not navigate to a web site. I get an error message that the program is having problems loading.

You can make Firefox Firefox 5.0 look like Firefox 3.6.18, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 5.0, or 4.0.1, look like 3.6).
