Quick Query: How to Reinstate Firefox Taskbar?

Hi folks, Please can you help?
Last night my partner accidentally clicked on something (doesn't know what!) which resulted in my Firefox taskbar being replaced by a Google one! Unfortunately all the buttons had gone including back/forward, new tab, refresh, stop and home! My partner didn't tell me what had happened until after I'd wasted 3 hours scanning for nasties! Also I had recently downloaded larger icons and added a a few to it, so all in all I'm not a happy bunny!
I did a quick search on MSE and uninstalled the Google taskbar, but now there's none. I need to reinstate the Firefox one. Would a system restore fix it (I expect not)? Thanks!

Try right clicking at the top of Firefox - inline with "file, edit view etc.." and see if you have a floating menu for "navigation toolbar", or you could also try "customise" from the floating menu and then "restore default set"0

Hi Ximian,
Your first suggestion worked fine!
It even restored the "open a new tab" button which I'd added to the original set! It's easy when you know, eh?
Many thanks - You're a star!0
