I want to use the same Firefox add-on I have on my desktop on my laptop, but I can't remember the add-on's name. How can I find that. I'm running Win7 on my desktop.

You assume I know as much as you. I followed your instructions and nothing remotely resembling a "main banner" appeared; there was no button as you described.

What "address bar?"

I was able to find the "about:support" page and could follow all your instructions ... except ... there is no "reply box at the bottom of this page."
