Gmail Iconic Toolbar scrolls up when I scroll down to view messages. How do I get it to stay put so I can Delete, etc. my messages without returning to the top?

When I scroll through my Inbox in Gmail, the Gmail iconic toolbar scrolls up off of the display. The side toolbar with the information such as: "Compose", "Inbox", "Drafts" appears to offer the selections or appraise me where I am doesn't move. Just the top toolbar moves so I can't delete multiple emails which run below the display. I'd like to have the top toolbar remain fixed...it stays put on IE Explorer but I want to use Firefox (faster). Any suggestions? I'm running Windows XP.

Reloading the page does not help. The toolbar that contains the icons for: "select", "archive", "report spam", "delete", etc. still moves up out of the window as I scroll down my email messages. When I use Internet Explorer the emails scroll down independently of the toolbar and the toolbar stays stationary and visible in the window. Help?
