I have a few addons that i really like. I have a couple different media grabbers so that you can save anything thats in a webpage just by clicking on it.

Funky, what version are you running? Version 3.0 is crap. I went to Chrome for quite a while until I tried 3.5 Beta and was impressed enough to go back to FF. 3.55 is the standard release now and fixes a lot of the problems 3.0 had.
I haven't tried 3.6 Beta yet but plan to.

3.5.3
I had no problems with 3.0
Funny how we all have difference experiences.

Thanks Bogus for the tip as to the BabelFish add-on. I have used BabelFish Translator often as I read Mexican newspapers online, but did not know of the FF add-0n. I installed it when you clued me in and find it to be a much quicker manner of translating. So, thanks.

Did it install an open bookmark toolbar that won't go away? That's what happened when I downloaded it.

What do mean "open bookmark toolbar"? I assume you've checked for activated toolbars under the "view" menu. I use the "bookmark" toolbar with the multi-row add-on and am able to make it go away by unchecking it under the view menu.

Whereas displaying toolbars listed in View is optional, the new toolbar is not. It's now displayed across the top. I don't want it to be and I haven't figured out how to make it go away.
Correction, it describes itself as a tab bar.

The "tab bar" as I know it is right above the content window and enables one to open multiple web pages in different tabs. Is that what you're talking about?

So, does that make me some kind of bad person if I just use IE 8? It works fine for me. I liked Chrome in that it was really, really fast. I didn't like it in that it didn't render pages right. I figure that it's okay to use IE because Bill Gates donates a LOT of money to good causes, and Paul Allen kept my team from becoming the Los Angeles Seahawks. And it's not expensive like Office.
