OK the new FF 4.x has some changes that DRAMATICALLY reduce usability. This post deals with one of those changes that may seem rather small but is not to many users. Please tell me how to move the home button back to the left side of the address bar where it logically belongs with the other navigation button (forward/back). Whoever thought it would be good to move that must have been smoking crack. This simple feature is one of the things that made FF superior to IE. I REALLY wish FF would quit trying to emulate IE constantly and stay on track of actually being a better browser. Please do not respond with the typical "give it a chance you will like it once you get sued to it", because I won't. It is 100% absurd and illogical to have the home button way over on the right side of my browser when all of the other navigation is on the left. Please tell me how to move it back to where it belongs.

Thank you, but I got this fixed. I forgot to Keep It Simple Stupid and simply customize the toolbar! Thank you FF programmers for allow us to use software how WE want to use it rather than how YOU like to use it. (Now if I can get the rest of my set up the way I want I will be a happy camper again.)

Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
Drag the Home button from its current position at the right to the left end of the location bar.
