I upgraded to Firefox 4. There is no status bar. And the back and forward buttons have no menus. Are these normal?

I upgraded to Firefox 4. There is no status bar. And the back and forward buttons have no menus (it only moves one screen back or forward). Are these normal? Must I use the History button for going back and forward? And, about the status bar, how do I know how far the site is toward opening without the moving black line?
