I have Adblock Plus installed. The icon disappeared. How do I get it to come back?

I upgraded to Firefox version 4. I thought I saw the icon for Adblock Plus when I first installed it. I noticed the McAfee Site Adviser was disabled so I tried to find a replacement for it in the meantime. I think that downloading the Site Adviser from the Add-ons site may have caused the problem, but I can't be 100% sure because I didn't notice the missing icon until I wanted to use it. I can't figure out why the icon for Adblock Plus disappeared or how to get it to come back.

OK, here's what you do.

In the upper left corner of your Firefox screen, go to View > Toolbars and make sure that you have the Add-on bar [√] checked. Then go to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions > AdBlock Plus > Options > Options and make sure that you have "Show in toolbar" [√] checked.

The ABP icon will now show up in your Add-on bar.

OR if you are like me and don't want that bar, go to View > Toolbars and UNcheck Add-on bar [ ]. Then find an empty spot at the top of your screen and right-click customize. Your Add-on bar will appear *even though you have it turned off*. NOW drag and drop the ABP icon to where ever you want it. NOTE: you MUST have Show in Toolbar checked [√] in your Adblock Plus options... even if you have that toolbar not showing.
