Firefox problem

Sep 22, 2006 1:27AM PDT

Hi
When i open Firefox then change the navigation bar at the top then close it and when i reopen it again it will be back to default. Also recently when i have tried to download things the download box wont come up and tell me how much it has done and it wont download i will have the file and the part file but it wont download.
Does anybody know what is wrong if there is?

Thanks,
Chris

Customizing the toolbar
Sep 22, 2006 12:20PM PDT

in Mozilla Firefox.

Right click any where on the toolbar. click and drag what you want to use. Click and drag anything you don't want to use.

Downloading.

Click on tools

click on options

click on downloads

click on browse and put the download in a folder any where you want them. It's easier to find them when you are looking for them.

Also checkmark the box, show download manager when download begins. The download manager will now show.

I use an extention called All-In-One Sidebar. It then allows you to use the favorites function, just like in Internet Explorer. It will also show the download when it begins in that column instead.

All-In-One Sidebar can be downloaded at

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1027/


Hope this helps.
