3. Um, what can this baby do? why is it better than firebird?
[edit] WTH!? I just realized my back and forward buttons are gone................grrrrrr
I would also like to add that by gong to view>customize, I still have no back or forward buttons.

Make sure the navgation toolbar is checked as when toolbards go back to default they could be hiding there perhaps or it could be theme compatibility problems also.
I take it you upgrade from Firebird 0.7 to Firefox 0.8 right as the themes have been changed a few times (widgets to bindings etc long story) and so you need a updated version of theme sorry. Try selecting default theme and then restart maybe?
If you went from release to release then:

ALways use a new profile with a new build.
New Profile:
Close Firefox and run
"path:\to\firefox.exe" -p
You can copy over stuff from the old profile like (if you want to keep them):
-bookmarks.html
-cookies.txt, signons.txt,cookperm.txt,key3.db
-localstore.rdf (arrangements of the UI)
-user.js
-usercontent.css
-userchrome.css
and etc...
Profile folder location:
On Windows XP/2000, the path is usually %AppData?%\Phoenix\Profiles\default\xxxxxxxx.slt\, where xxxxxxxx is a random string of 8 characters. Just browse to C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Phoenix\Profiles\ and the rest should be obvious.
On Windows 95/98/Me, the path is usually C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Phoenix\Profiles\default\xxxxxxxx.slt\
On Linux, the path is usually ~/.phoenix/default/xxxxxxxx.slt.
On MacOS? X, the path is usually ~/Library/Phoenix/Profiles/default/xxxxxxxx.slt.
Note: Mozilla Firebird is capable of handling more than one user and thus, more than one profile. The path examples above refers to the default profile that is automatically created when you start Mozilla Firebird for the first time. You can manage any number of profiles by using the Profile Manager.

I'm going to wait for the official .zip version later though myself.
By the way the new Mozilla Thunderbird 0.5 email client is out also.
