I have downloaded Spoofstick, but there is no visible change in my Firefox ‘hello screen'.

It states that Spoofstick now has a button not a bar. No such button is visible.

I have nothing in ‘downloads', but the screen ‘ Tools—Extensions' shows the item and ver #, along with the un-install option. All indications are that it is running in the background somewhere.

However, there is no change to my Firefox screen, and going to tools etc does not indicate where I can drag what from where.

Any help would be appreciated. LR

That's funny LR, I was just going to say exactly the same thing!

I'm so glad that I'm not alone...one is feeling a severe absence of brain-cell activity these days.

There is no reported action in (The excellent ) Process Explorer or Task manager on selecting oft used sites, etc.

Looking ......... No, nothing seems to have changed
Edit:

Please in my next life may I be gifted with a brain.

The garage doors rumbled open and the Rivetess appeared with g-son in one hand and a tonne of shopping in the other.

She has the ability to turn her head as fast as the King in Freecell, but with a change of expression: big smile for him...and a glare for me. I nervously asked if she would look at the problem. On the way to the den she trust various items at me until my arms were full. She explained that the house was not a dumping ground for my junk. Still, all was not lost, I know from long experience that she is at her most brilliant in full Demonic mode.

Menus flew around the screen and in 15 secs she said, ‘So what's that?!' Twas the Spoofstick logo.

I had gone to --view-- toolbars-- customize BUT I HADN'T SCROLLED DOWN....and if only it was for the first time.

We dragged it onto the Firefox Bookmarks toolbar. However it took up too much space, and I certainly did not want to waste screen space with another toolbar. Editing the names of all other items...set to small of course....allowed me to get everything in the space. Spoofstick allows the removal of extraneous words as well.

Frankly, I don't need many buttons. Just one huge one in the middle of the screen would do...‘Pprune'

Thanks LR - I don't think I've ever explored the depths of the View - Toolbars commands before!
