The File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools etc. menus are gone from the top of my Firefox home page. How do I restore them?
The forward/back, refresh, stop loading icons are now the top line. I don't know what happened to the bookmark line of menus.

You need to update your plugins. It is important to keep them updated due to continuing security fixes and improvements in those plug-ins:
- Java Plug-in 1.6.0 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)
- Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
- Update Java:
- Firefox version 3.6 and higher requires at least Java 1.6.0.10 or newer
