Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

I am new here. I kept trying to install various items and was told I
couldn't because one or more issues in the preference sections needed my
attention. I finally tried to open  one of the managers and the upper
and lower gnome bars dissapeared and Firefox filled the whole screen.
When I went back to the desktop, all of the items I had place in the
upper bar had been deleted. When going through the Ubuntu menu, all
items were still there but once I opened firefox, I couldn't access the
the menu bar and the status bar at the bottom was also gone. I do not
see a minimize button on Firefox so I don't know what to do, short of
uninstalling and reinstalling the program and starting from scratch. I
am using Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid that I downloaded and installed from Wubi.
My first experience with your product. A nice change from Windows, once
I can learn how to set it up, probably use it all the time.
