Re: FF3.5 hijack issue with search and bookmarks toolbar

He/she said she/he tried to delete them off the bookmark toolbar but they came back when FF was restarted?

I see that but the OP did not say if they tried deleting them using the Bookmark Manager not just right-click delete from the Bookmark Toolbar.

Have not heard of a theme doing this before although I believe Ask.com is included in Fx full install updates.

Areofox is a 5 star theme and there is no mention of additional junk included.

I have to wonder if the OP installed some software that put their junk in Fx by clicking through an install.

Ahh, ok.

This is very odd, I installed the upgrade the same way as the OP and had none of this happen. If it was across the board, I'm sure there would be a lot of people here complaining about it.

I too wonder about other installed software or maybe some hijacking?
