When I downloaded Firefox 4 you switched my search engine from Google to Yahoo. I much prefer Google. Secondly, at the same time, my toolbar disappeared. When I wanted to print out a mutual fund activity confirmation, there was no means to do it. Unless this is changed, I will go back to IE, with great regrets. Photogranny.

You can remove the Yahoo Toolbar by going to Tools | Add-ons | Extensions and remove it from the list.

But it's not part of the original installation file. You might of got it when you installed something recently.

By the way, you need to update Flash. The version you have installed at the moment exposes your PC to hacking. You can download the latest version from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
