Since upgrading to 4.0 every time I open my browser it keeps doing an add on compatibility check. How do I stop this? Every time it does a check it gets rid of my bookmarks and I have to reload them again, and it also takes me to the Firefox welcome page. How do I stop this as it's a pain in the neck. I hate 4.0 I'm going back to my last Firefox browser as I had very little trouble with it.

Make sure that you do not use the same profile with different Firefox versions.
