I updated to Firefox 4 and was about to go to Fire FTP to upload some files to a web site but it has gone from the tools menu. I have looked for it and cannot seem to find it in any other menus. Do I have to reinstall it? Does this mean I would have lost all my passwords that were stored on there?? There was not information during installation that this would happen even though I did get the message about another add on!
