OK, when the last firefox update loaded, there was a window saying that firefox 4 was now available, so I thought I'd go ahead and go with it even though the 3.6 had just updated. I lost a lot of features I liked before the 4 version such as where is the refresh button???????????????????????? And when I open new sites, I lose the ones I already have open and have to reopen them. Sometimes new features or lack of are not always the way to go. I would like my old features back. How do I get them?

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload (refresh) buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.

When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.

If you want separate buttons, Control-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again.
