Thank you Chris. That makes a little more sense. This is royally frustrating and starting to get on my nerves. Only problem now is that I installed the version 1.4.5b11 as suggested previously and there is no Mode tab. There is a Pop and Advanced tab and that's it. There isn't any point to me uninstalling this and installing the previous version as I tried all possible combinations. Only thing I can try at this point is to uninstall everything and start from scratch with XPI's from a different download point in hopes that it was just a bad download, unless you can suggest another alternative.
