Right click on the blank area next to the tabs and uncheck “Tabs on Top” The tabs are then below the header.

Dude, that was too simple. Thanks for making me feel like a moron for not finding that first! :-)

I have found that it gets real slow too quickly & that there seems to be a memory leak.

Whoa!!!

That “Customize” is pretty powerful! I was able to drag the refresh button, the home button, the forward/back button, the stop loading button, and the Yahoo search box to the very top line (the line with File Edit History... etc.

Much nicer!!!

Roboform works for me when I changed its options to show up on my right-click menu and run it from there.

Then right-click on the FF3 toolbar and unchecked the RoboForm Toolbar.

You can also run it from the system tray.

For right-click menu open RoboForm Options, select Context menu and check the box for each command you want on the Context Menu.

For System Tray select Options/General and check "Show RoboForm Icon in Tray"

Do you know how to view adobe flash videos when using Firefox 4. The is an FReeper thread that has a link to a Newsbusters video about Howard Dean. But when I go to newsbusters the video is totally black with no way to play it. In IE imbedded youtube video shows up fine and will play. When in Firefox 4 and I click on a youtube music video I have bookmarked it plays fine.

Flash videos will not work on my machine either running FF4. It also killed my IE tab rendering engine. On some pages I need to copy the link and open Google (commie) Chrome to get them to work. It would be great if FF came out with a way to check if all your Extensions and Plug-ins etc. would work with the new version before you downloaded and installed it. On several occasions I have had to “downgrade” to an older version because a feature I depended on no longer worked on the new and “improved” version that came out. 4 does not seem to be a whole lot faster and in the last week it has crashed on me 3 or 4 times. Sometimes it recovered the tabs I was on and sometimes not. It looks like I may have jumped in too soon on this new version again.
