What's happened to the lovely red icon for adblock plus? I can't work out how to disable this vital add-on when I need to! Is it hidden somewhere - or am I just being unintelligent?! Please help me with this issue if you can. Many thanks.

Click the menu at the top tight of Firefox (3 bars) and see if the ADP icon is available, then drag and drop where you want it to be.

Many thanks for your helpful suggestion :-) In fact the icon was NOT available! However, after selecting it from the list of available add-ons, I was able to disable it and then re-enable it, and as if by magic the icon reappeared top right next to the menu button! lol Job done :-)
