I want my bookmark tabs back
I used to be able to open a new tab and I had bookmarks pinned that I could easily go to. I got a popup asking me to update my browser and it updated the browser and added an aol toolbar that I didn't want (I managed to uninstall that successfully) but I still don't have my bookmark tabs back. Now when I open a new tab I get the aol home page and I don't want that at all.

If I understand your question correctly, it sounds like a setting was changed when you did the update. The instructions below should fix the problem:
- In the Location bar, type about:config and press Return. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
- Type browser.newtab.url in the search box.
- Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and change the url to about:newtab. Alternately, you can change it to about:home for the Firefox Google home page, or type in your preferred home page, for example google.com.
- Click OK and close the about:config tab.
