Hi Milliways2-

You should be able to easily delete any toolbar items you do not want. The right click context menu has a 'delete' item for each of the icons. If you Right click on the toolbar area in some blank space, a toolbar menu displays where you can click 'Customize'. This will allow you to add, or remove, any items on the toolbar.

I agree that You should be able to delete any toolbar items you do not want, but you can not delete "Bookmarks", neither can I get rid of the useless folder icons. There is no "Customise" option on FF8 when you click on a blank area.

Try:

• Bookmarks Deiconizer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/bookmarks-deiconizer/

This got rid of the icons - Unfortunately not only the Folder icons, but also the RSS icons. It would be nice to go back to the way it worked in 3.6

Add code to userChrome.css in the chrome folder below the @namespace line.

• Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.
