With firefox 3.6 I was able to download a video or mp3 by clicking the flashing FlashGot icon or could block an ad by clicking on the Adblock plus icon. I can not find the icons in Firefox 4 and it is rather difficult to download sound files on certain links, i.e.: http://www.mdbg.net/chindict/chindict.php?wdqchid=%E5%95%86%E5%BA%97 OS EasyPeasy 1.6 (Ubuntu 10.04.) & Firefox 4 Any help?

Maybe you are missing the status bar. Go to the View→Toolbars menu (or right-click a toolbar) and enable the Add-on Bar.

Thanks a lot. It seems I was a bit too lazy to find my way into the wonderful new FF4 and posted my question too fast. Now I am happy and during the process of familiarization I discovered a further way to view the add-on icons: ctrl+/

Indeed, an interesting feature, though I am using Status-4-Evar to see links unabbreviated when possible, and that doesn't work with the pop-up link indicator.
