My Norton Tool Bar became deleted somehow. I need it so my Norton Internet Security Auto Fill feature will work. How do I get this back on the menu bar?

My Firefox Browser page use to have a Norton Safe Search Bar within the tool bar area. It has to be active thereon otherwise the Auto Fill feature of Passwords for websites I visit - which require my user name AND password - will not be filled in automatically by the Norton Internet Security 2011 software that I have on my computer. My Question: HOW do I get that Norton Search Bar back on my Firefox Browser Page?

I use Norton 360 as well and had to enable the two Norton add-ons (see below) when I upgraded to Firefox 8.0:

  • Norton Toolbar 2011.7.3.6; and
  • Symantec IPS 3.2.

In your case as well, since you've used it before, the add-ons may still be installed, you just need to enable them, like I had to do. Firefox 8.0 automatically disables add-ons.

To see if the above add-ons are still installed, you can:

  • go to \Firefox\Add-ons;
  • click on Extensions;

...and you should find them there. If not, you will have to install them. You can use the links that Swarnava and the-edmeister have provided above.

You may need to update to a 2012 version of NIS to get Firefox 8 compatibility.

I had the same problem before, but i figured it out. This answer might be a bit late now....

           1. Open the Norton program.
           2. Scroll under PC protection and select Run Live Update
           3. Repeat step 2 until there isn't anymore updates available.
           4. Restart the PC
           5. Open Firefox browser
           6. If the toolbar isn't there, press Ctrl+shift+A
           7. Under extensions enable the Norton toolbar.
