I installed the new firefox 5 and I know that there is supposed to be a new style of toolbar in one convenient tab. But I still have the old version and the clear recent history freezes. Is there some way to get the new toolbar, or is my operating system preventing that? I have XP

Hi mstng51,

If you follow these instructions, you should be able to change your menu to the new style.

View > Toolbars > Untick 'Menu Bar'

Good Luck,
