The Logout button keeps multiplying 1,2,3, and on the 4th Logout button it knocks the menu down a line and becomes invisible until you hover over it.

Here are pics of the bug.

But that doesn't happen to me.
Does anyone experience this too?

yeah as you can see its pretty weird, i didn't even notice but i even managed to get 6 Logout Buttons on the second pic. it seems that every time i go to another page it adds a Logout button.

Yeah, this is my problem, too. I started a ticket days ago but nothing has come of it. :(

I have a friend seeing the multiple Logout (header) and Configure FFixer (Account) scenarios as well. I don't have physical access to check it out but she sent me that pics that show the evidence.

I've noticed this only happens on my home pc, but not at work. Both are Win7 and the most recent Firefox. The one difference I can note now is I don't have NoScript on my work PC, but do at home - though FFixer and Greasemonkey worked with NoScript just fine prior to this issue, so I'm not sure if they're connected.

I have NoScript and AdBlock Plus and i don't have multiple logout buttons.
Im running win 7 x64 with FF 3.6.12

The only thing i can think to debug this issue is to play with settings that involve the top menu bar!
Uncheck them all and leave only logout setting on, then activate one more option and check... etc..

I just took the Logout option off altogether. The Configure ffixer still shows up 2-3 times under Account, but since it doesn't visually mess with the menu bar, I can ignore it.

I would guess that there is more than one instance of the script running. I would uninstall every version of the script you can find, along with uninstalling associated preferences and then reinstall.

Alright, I just tested in Firefox 3.6 & 4.0, Opera 11 and Chromium 9 and couldn't reproduce this in any of the browsers.

If Dink's steps for reinstalling don't work, then I need to know everything else you have installed that modifies Facebook (extensions, greasemonkey scripts, userstyles etc). The only other thing I can think of is that Facebook is making changes again and rolling them out slowly.

Alright, I just looked back at the thread started by SageSoul and he said that it happens when logged into chat. Is that the situation for everybody? If so, then its possible the script is running multiple times because of something Facebook is doing in the background.

For those who are getting the problem and are using NoScript, does completely disabling NoScript solve the problem? (as in disabling it in Tools > Addons and restarting Firefox, not just disabling stuff in NoScript's settings).

I don't use chat at all, and I have this same problem.
I don't use NoScript (don't even know what that is)

I did what Sage Soul did above and unchecked the logout option. The number of Configure ffixer options on the Account tab fluctuates, but doesn't mess up the menu bar anymore.

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I remove my associated preferences? I uninstall the script within greasemonkey but when I re-install it, my previous profile bookmarks are still there.

Thanks.

@SageSoul - When you bring up Greasemonkey's "Manage User Scripts" window you'll see a checkbox labelled "Also uninstall associated preferences" at the bottom. Make sure that's selected before clicking the Uninstall button.
