Hi. I've recently upgraded to FF 30 (beta) and from that moment onwards every time I start the browser the xmarks icon appears in the toolbar. If I right-click the icon and select remove this item I can successfully remove it, but the next time I start the browser or if I open a new window it shows up again in both the new window and the one I was in before. Any ideas? Thanks. Pedro

You can check for problems with preferences.

Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
