(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Tony]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

Upon the most resent update, on Oct. 17th 2006, after restarting Firefox my toolbars where back to a default state, Forecast Fox was not there, and adblock was not functioning properly.  I have in the address toolbar and "new tab" as my very first icon, after closing and restarting it is always gone.  I remove the "google search" from the address bar after restarting it's always back. All of my book marks are m.i.a. and after adding a few and restarting those too are m.i.a., all usernames and passwords still auto fill and forecast fox is staying where it should, but having to rework your toolbars every time you restart or open a new browser

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open firefox customize toolbars and bookmarks to liking
2.close firefox
3.open firefox all will be defaulted, barring forecast fox and password manager

Actual Results:  
as described all bookmarks are gone, and all toolbars are defaulted

Expected Results:  
remembered where i had my toolbars, what i had in my toolbars, etc.
