When I open firefox my screen fills up and I don't have the top part with the tool bar or tabs. How do I fix this. It does not do this with explorer
When I open firefox the whole screen fills with the firefox page but no tabs or toolbar at the top of the screen. It does not do this if I use Internet Explorer. I can google say, my email of facebook and I can get there but there is no way to get out of this page, no "red" X to close the sight.

Not to be confused with Maximize/Restore button in upper right corner which leaves your toolbars intact.
Just noticed your mention of missing the red "X" (red background), are you also missing the vertical scrollbar on the right side.

If you are referring to not being able to close a tab, you will not see the "X" on a tab if it is the last tab, in fact you may not even see the tab bar, that depends on your options and on configuration options for how the close tab is to appear.
Check your about:config options
