Why does my FireFox help menu come and go?

The menu bar should end with a "Help" selection. Half the time when I start FireFox 7.01 for Ubuntu Linux, the "Help" selection is absent without leave.

I downloaded Firefox 8.0 but couldn't figure out how to install it. Then I Googled for help, followed the instructions, and ended up installing Firefox 9.0 Beta. When I run this beta, I get the help menu three out of every four times. So the problem is not fixed, but I can live with it. Perhaps the problem is with Ubuntu 11.10.
