Bookmarks toolbar not appearing

I'm having an issue where after I upgraded from FF 5 to FF 6, my bookmarks toolbar does not load when I start FF.

Every time I start FF 6 I have to go to "options' and frist uncheck the "Bookmarks toolbar' and then re-check it in order for the bookmarks toolbar to appear. Again, this happens each and every time I start up FireFox 6. It never happened in FF 5.

An obvious bug.

Anyone know of a solution? Someone mentioned permissions for certain files, but I'm not sure how to change them or what that means exactly.

Also, every time I start FF 6 I get a pop up box that says that FF is not my default browser. Even if I say 'yes' and uncheck the 'check every time box', the same pop up appears each and every time I start FF 6.
