I have no status bar, no menu bar, no maneuverability at all. There appears to be only the center of the webpage and I have to ctl-alt-del to close firefox. There must be a simple solution to correct this.

Problem began this am- opened firefox 4 and have lost all the manageability buttons-tabs-toolbars. It appears that all I have is the center of the page and the frames around the edge are out of sight or gone. Can't grab a corner/edge to make screen smaller or scroll up/down. Tried reloading and reinstalling FF4 but still same problem

Are you running Firefox in full screen mode?

Press F11 to toggle "Firefox (View) > Full Screen".

I mucked about and solved the issue myself by uninstalling FF4 then installing FF3.16.... it still opened up wrong. I deleted something from Mozilla FF ( I had 3 sets of search engine folders) and then managed to get back online with FF instead of Chrome. Will keep your advice in mind should the problem occur again - I never run anything in full screen mode and dumb me does not even know how to do that with FF. Thanks for the answer.....
