Since updating to 3.6.1 I don’t get an empty browser window in my tool bar whe. it opens --- just a list of search engines. I can’t find anything in “Help” or the FAQ’s that seem to address this. My only choice seems to go back to Safari.

I am not sure what your problem is, can you give more details. One possibility is you may be in full screen mode, for details on fixing that see the [[menu bar is missing]] article. If you are missing various toolbar items, see the [[back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]] article. If your problem is something else please give more details.
