A day or two after I upgraded from FF 3.6 to FF4, all the ordinary navigation features stopped working. Backspace/alt-<, even the back and forward arrows, Crtl-R to reload a page, and the address field doesn't show the current URL unless I click the identify information icon. All very odd. None of the keyboard shortcuts work.

My bookmark toolbar does not load automatically, although I guess that Vista is the source of that issue.

Doing a downgrade is not anything I have done or feel comfortable with. Is there a clean procedure to accomplish this?
