I received a supposed update, I had no choice but to accept it. I have now lost the google toolbar which has wiped out all the tabs needed for auto spelling gmail, facebook and many others. I have come to rely on this format as would many others. If its not restored I will find another browser. I need the above for things I do on the net especially for writing up web pages etc. Thanks guys a real piece of wisdom supplying updates with out the existing.

Many users have restored the functionality of Google toolbar by installing the Add-on Compatibility Reporter extension. Google needs to test the toolbar in Firefox 5 and change one line of their code to make it compatible with Firefox 5.
