upgraded to 4, have a wide-as-the-firefox-window blank area below the URL typing/little-house/search area. Right clicking in that area shows a bookmark pop-up menu. I would love to get rid of the waste of space. Help searching shows some folks do not have it and ask to get it back. They are told to start by clicking the "Firefox" icon and selecting Options, so that seemed promising, but I don't have one of those icons. Tools==>Options... does not have anything about bookmarks toolbar that I can find on any of it's panes.

Right click a blank part of the tab bar and go to Customize and then drag the toolbar and anything you don't want into that panel.

You can also drag stuff out of there.

Similarly, while the panel is open, you can rearrange the layout to your own liking.
