i expected to sign on to my e-mail. So i select the home icon. i just get a screen that says 'Google' and a place to start a search. - Again I just loaded Firefox on New Windows 7 laptop. I expected to see a screen with news topics and a place to sign on to my e-mail. - to me this is very goofy. RJ

Firefox 4 has a new Start Page, or "homepage" - about:home. Set your Homepage to the old Firefox start page - http://www.google.com/firefox
