Why do I have two Bookmarks tabs, one in the Menu Bar one in the Bookmarks Toolbar?

I recently upgraded to FireFox 9.01 on my MacBook running 10.6.8. I now have two Bookmark tabs. One in the menu bar where it has always been and a new one in the Bookmarks Toolbar. The one in the toolbar has all of the custom icons for the sites that I visit but the menu bar Bookmark tab just has the generic icons. Can I display only one Bookmark tab, preferably in the menu bar where it has always been with all of the custom site icons?

Firefox also seems very slow to load my homepage, which is Yahoo, or some of my other pages. Thanks.

See this about the missing icons in the Bookmarks menu.

If you open the Customize window (View > Toolbars > Customize) then you should see that Bookmarks Menu button move to the Navigation Toolbar.
You can drag that button in the toolbar palette to remove it from the Bookmarks Toolbar.
