 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.
