when it adds a notification bar at the top, for instance to inform of a blocked pop-up, it slides it in, moving everything else along with it. This is completely annoying.
I'm sure there's something in about:config to fix it, but that's not really my point; I feel like the firefox retards are spending all there time adding questionable bits which some mongoloid subset of the populace find shiny.
I wish they could do something decent, like cut down on the ridiculous memory usage.
also the new default (also 'shiny') theme looks like goat ass.

I use debian, and during a routine upgrade last night it got pushed in..
probably a sane choice. I definitely don't trust them to write security conscious code..

it even has a "debian sid" download on the site! I'll try it for a while (at least a week) and hopefully stick with it.

Here's the solution, took me five seconds to search for in about:config ->
go to about:config
under filter, type popup. Near the bottom is privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage set it to false by double clicking on it. piece'a'piss

so FIRST of all, I clearly stated that my point isn't to fix it.
second of all, you didn't stop the scrolling, you disabled the message entirely.
you fail on two accounts, JOUST AGAIN

It's PRETTY BAD, I broke up with my girlfriend, am behind in research, and need to start my grad school applications.
thanks for asking though, how are you?
thanks for having a bittorrent tracker, by the way, I grabbed all the vibert yesterday.

What scroll? All it adds is a small bar at the top, nothing scrolls on it....
As for the memory usage, well that can be fixed too. You can just adjust the way in which is cache's the pages/images in memory.
You can't be arsed to fiddle under the bonnet to get it to work, yet you're happy to use almost the most fiddly-est of the linux distros. Suit yourself you grumpy bastard, I was just trying to help

none of you actually read what I said!
the scrolling thing *isn't* the issue. the issue is the general focus of firefox, and I used that one thing to lead into the topic.
!!!
it's a buggy, insecure piece of bloated shit, and it seems to be run by marketing wankers who want it to be pretty.
THAT is my complaint. THANK YOU FOR MISUNDERSTANDING. I ESPECIALLY APPRECIATE THE POST WHICH TRIES TO ASSERT LINUX-PENIS-SIZE.

what's up with people in this thread?
are we allowed to bitch about music on this website, or when we dislike a disc or whatever are we to stay silent and simply purchase others until we find one we like and then.. praise it here?
it was once a nice piece of sofware, but then its intent was derailed.
not sure why everyone is being retarded.

I just use it to surf the web, which it does quite well. I don't care for sliding in toolbars and auto updates from buttcore.
