Firefox 9.0.1 replaced FF logo in toolbar with a pencil/ruler/pen. Why? It's confusing.
Just updated to FF 9.0.1. All by itself it changed the Fox logo in my toolbar to a generic-looking pencil and brush over a ruler on a blank page logo. {Would attach a screen-shot but there's no way to do so} Why have a logo that suggests a graphics program rather than Firefox browser? It's confusing.

Try the solution from this thread for the pencil icon:
- Delete the Firefox icon from the dock.
- Create a new icon by dragging the Firefox application to the dock.
cor-el, Thanks for the reply. I knew to do what you suggested and already did it immediately after I posted my question. Thanks for your kind reply anyway.
I guess the real question is how such a thing happened. I have updated "protection" through MacKeeper and it indicated no virus/malware etc. so it was disconcerting that the FF icon in my toolbar was somehow replaced. Where would the replacement icon even come from? I looked through all my Applications and it was from none of them. The "solution" fixes the symptom rather than the cause. Let's hope it doesn't happen again.
