[CGUYS] Firefox f-up

Problem solved. I thought I had uninstalled the Gmarks Firefox add on, but noticed it still listed in Tools --> Add Ons. Once I disabled it there, the blank white area at the bottom of my browser disappeared. Before I figured that out, though, I tried uninstalling Firefox and downloading it anew
