Chosen solution

To temporarily display the Menu Bar, press the ALT key or the F10 key and make selections from the Menu Bar while it is visible. You can also check "Menu Bar" to have it display full-time in place of the Firefox button.

Thank you, SafeBrowser. Doing the add-ons solved the problem. I needed to update Java & Adobe Reader. It did the trick, without going to the first solution.
