My add-on bar is enabled, and my plug in (Latest BBC News) is enabled, but it doesn't appear on the add-on bar; until this morning it was working perfectly.

This morning I actually had some problems; when I opened Google, the central logo was missing, and the BBC plug in page was also not formatted properly. I googled for a solution, found one (which involved clearing history and cache), after which everything seemed back to normal. But about an hour ago I noticed that the BBC logo is no longer on the add-on bar. I checked my plug ins, and the BBC one is still enabled. What can have caused the problem, and how can I fix it?

Do you mean that a bookmark (BBC Latest Headlines) on the Bookmarks Toolbar no longer has a favicon?

Are other favicons missing?

Are you running any cleanup software like CCleaner?


Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

Note that these settings affect background images.
