When I open firefox I get my hotmail sign in page and no toolbar so I can't browse the net. How do I get the toolbar back?

Without the toolbar I can't access any settings. I've tried everything I can find in the control panel but no luck. BT just sent me an updated wireless modem yesterday and I had a lot of trouble making it work. I can only think I deleted some stuff I shouldn't have when I was messing about with it. I can access the internet via Internet Explorer and my hotmail works on firefox but only my mail account.

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.

Hit the Alt key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark.
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.
