I want to remove i-dressup toolbar but I can't find where the 'Tools'. I went to see the instructions how to uninstall the i-dressup toolbar, they said : 1) Open your Firefox browser 2) From your browser's menu bar select 'Tools' and then 'Add-Ons' from the drop down menu 3) Find and click on the MyWebSearch Toolbar listing and click the Uninstall button. 4) Confirm the uninstallation by clicking Uninstall in the confirmation dialog box 5) Click on the 'Restart Firefox' button at the top of the Add-Ons dialog box

But I cant find 'Tools

archhe, do you see a bar at the top of your Firefox window containing items like File, Edit, View etc? The Tools item is on the same bar towards the right side.

In case you are not able to view this bar, do the following: press the Alt key on your keyboard. Keeping this pressed, type the following keys in this order: V T M.

I hope you should be able to view the Tools item now on the top bar of Firefox.
