I can honestly say I've never seen FireFox do this...
Is it only this program that's doing it?

What did he say?
Anyways could be an addon.
Mine for example has one I set so that it minimizes to my try instead of my tool bar.
Could be something like that.
If not have you tried simply restarting your computer?

If it's only FF doing it it'll have nil to do with those settings in the picture.
It's either a random glitch, which restarting may or may not fix in a slim shot, or it's a rogue setting in FireFox which may or may not be due to an addon you have with it.

firefox is the ONLY program that ever went down into the taskbar. So I wouldn't know if other prgrams are doing it. I haven't downloaded anything new or done any updates.
EDIT: I should point out that my g/f restarted the computer and when it came back on there were no icons on the desktop so I turned off the computer and turned it back on. the icons came back but then I had this problem.

Your problem gets more confusing the more you describe it.  Run your scanners for whatever it is you have then when you get a chance restart your whole machine and just go from there. Honestly I can't do anything to help ya it seems. :-\ |

If that's the case, then you can always download the free version and try that. |
