I'm not totally sure why/how, but I seem to have managed to resolve my Foxit problem!!! Sitting here doing nothing (well, very little) I decided, for want of something better to do, to again download version 606, go to preferences and untick the start and advert page. Once done, I just closed the application and went again to Foxit's homepage (rather than 'check for updates') and selected to download version 611 - This time, once downloaded, it prompted me that it would replace my previous version (it didn't do this when using the check for updates option) - I went through the various 'next' processes and Foxit opened just as it had all the previous times (ie, no toolbar, just the blank screen). However, this time when I right clicked on the blank screen I was presented with a number of options, one of which led me to finding and displaying the toolbar. Once I had that it was only a matter of going through all the various drop down menus until I found the option to show or hide the ribbon. The rest is history! I'd like to be able to detail here exactly what all the options I got when I right clicked, but I cannot remember them and don't want to tempt fate by trying to recreate the scenario.
Thank you all for your help, I wouldn't have got it sorted without all the useful suggestions/tips, and the infinite patience shown, which gave me the confidence to play around with the downloads/applications etc.
Incidentally, I tried re-ticking the show start/advert page once everything was sorted out - it caused the script error to reappear.

!). I do note however that Foxit installs itself on my system in the Program Files (x86) folder of my C: drive (where all my downloaded programs appear to reside). Assume that the folder is just that, a folder and it shouldn't make any difference (it's certainly where the previous version of Foxit resided)?
Another idea bites the dust!
