So far, I have helped three people remove Firefox 4 and go back to Firefox 3.6. None of them liked that FF4 ditched the menu bar.
Crimus, if people wanted to use a browser that looks like Google's Chrome, guess what they are going to do?

I rue the day I downgraded to Firefox 4. It was like trading a perfectly good year-old Lexus for a '47 Chevy.
How the heck do you get anything accomplished without a menu bar? That's like having a car with no dashboard.
Well thanks for the warning. I really only update the crap Apple or the Xbox makes me update.
Phil, most of my friends had Windows 7, so it was easy. I picked a restore date that was before I knew they had "upgraded" and used that.
Firefox 3.6 was there. Then I merely reinstalled Windows updates and antivirus updates and they were good to go.
I have a menu bar with Firefox 4.0
It is at the very top and smaller but does everything I need it to. But yes, it took me awhile to get used to it.
Right click in a blank area where the tabs are located and put a check mark in the choice marked Menu Bar. That's all there is to it. And it also works the same in Firefox 5.0 Good luck.
Thanks for the tip, Comrade, but I'll hang with FF4 for a little while longer. Firefox updates fairly often, and I'm curious to see if they'll remedy some of their glaring omissions (such as restoring the AutoFill feature, for instance).
If Firefox 5 is being released in a couple of months, then why even bother with FF4?
I got used to the lack of toolbar pretty quickly and it can be returned easily enough as stated above.
