Why don't any new features appear when I upgraded from 3.6.15 to 4.0?
I upgraded from 3.6.15 to 4.0, but the appearance of Firefox didn't change at all. There is no Awesome Bar, Firefox Button, or Bookmark Button. The only change was 2 of my addons were disabled.

The new interface is only default on Windows Vista and Windows 7. To get it on Windows XP you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

Tony, Thanks. Your suggestion did the trick.
Based on the answer above, I was able to activate the FF button. But my layout still hasn't changed (home/refresh buttons) and I have no "awesome bar" and can't do the combined tab thing. Is this also an XP issue?
