How do I get my old Firefox back

How can I get my old Firefox back for my Windows 7. I'm not sure what version of Firefox I had before I downloaded this new one. With this new Firefox it comes with a Yahoo search bar which I cannot stand and a lot of other buttons I don't want. With my old version I had everything the way I wanted it but now it is all gone. Please help and show me the path way back to my old Firefox.

Thank you, Mike

The Yahoo search bar doesn't come with firefox by default (we never bundle third party software with Firefox) but, you can always remove it. If you click the firefox button, then add-ons, then extensions, find the yahoo toolbar and uninstall or disable it. You can do that with any other unwanted add-ons as well :)

What are the other buttons you don't want?

The Yahoo toolbar may have been added by an extension or other (security) software on your computer.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
