LOL, fixed now.

The installer checked my additional themes for compatibility, decided they were all incompatible. It then checked for updates to those themes, found none, and then rather than setting the new Firefox V2 theme to the default, ran it with the old incompatible V1.5 add-on theme

Because the incompatible theme had corrupt menu icons, I couldn't find where to change the theme back!

Found it eventually, but some advice for others - Change to the stock skin before upgrading!

I installed IE7 while I was at it. Yuk. You can keep it Mr Gates.

To be honest, it's just so darn ugly and alien compared to anything that's gone before that I couldn't bring myself to look at it for any length of time :-X

I'll have to have another go at some point from the point of view of testing the Satellite Help site on it

Now that I have it sorted, I really like the stock 'fox skin
