Hi In Firefox 5, how do i shut down the browser & have it remember the tabs i have open? In version 3, i could close the browser & it would ask me if i wanted to remember the 5 or 6 tabs i had open, in version 5 it doesn't! Am i missing something??

Thanks

Also, there is no progress bar at the bottom right to see how a page is loading!!

Why is the later version worse?

Thanks

From Firefox help Firefox tabs

There isn't a progress bar any more and many of the latest versions of browsers have removed it. However if you look at the tab you will see a green circle which indicates the page is loading and bottom left indications of what it may be waiting for.

There still is a progress bar,of sorts. A very thin bright green barline progresses along the bottom edge of the browser address bar as a page is loading.

If you really want to put a progress bar back in the menu bar at the bottom (so long as you have the menu bar enabled)then this add-on will do that for you.link text
