Hi - I've done what you said - installed : "and reading postings that were typed in all caps gives me eye strain and a headache

This extension will restore the older status bar type of appearance to the Add-on Bar. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/ "

But the real time web browsing status still remains, only in different font w/ different background

How can I remove this 24/7 moving font - hurts eyes/head to have something moving so fast w/ out stopping while I'm working

more options

Open the Status-4-Evar Options and on the Status > General tab - set the Status Text > Show Status in: to None.

See the screenshot below.

Great - how, though do I get to the Status-4-Evar Options to begin with?
