I know I will loose the google toolbar but will there still be a button were i can access my Igoogle page and I have everything stored in my bookmarks drop down so I dont have to type it in I just click bookmarks pick which bill I want to pay it takes me to the page and thats it, even access to my bank accounts are stored in bookmarks so I dont want to loose that feature, its quick simple and easy. right know I have my AT&T homepage with Firefox and there is a IGoogle icon I can click on in the toolbar that will take me to my IGoogle home page which I use all the time . Is there a version other than 3.6 were I wont loose these things since I am going to be forced to upgrade from 3.6? Thanks

If you want to set iGoogle as your home page, you can read How to set the home page, tell it to use igoogle, then you should be all set!

Now, are your bookmarks google bookmarks or Firefox bookmarks? firefox bookmarks will still be there, but for Google bookmarks, you have to do a workaround to use them. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/google-toolbar-not-compatible-firefox explains it all.

My Bookmarks are with Firefox. since my internet service is with AT&t my homepage is AT&T with Firefox and because it is an older version of Firefox I still have the google toolbar and there is a button I can click on that will take me from my AT&T home page to my IGoogle page which is so nice cause I have it set up with weather channel and other things my concern is if I upgrade since I know I will loose the google toolbar but will the new Firefox at least keep the button that I have know to go to IGoogle when I want to

paulagray83, you can easily update Firefox by going to www.getfirefox.com, clicking the big "Download Now" button, then installing the newer version. Firefox doesn't affect your documents, pictures, etc. so you will be fine :)
