Disabling Status bar-like thing in FF5?

[spleenharvester]

Is there any way to remove the little popups that come up at the bottom of FF4/5? You know, the ones that say like, "Waiting for overclockers.co.uk", "Connecting to overclockers.co.uk" etc? I have irlen syndrome and it's bloody offputting

Cheers

It can't be done via the about:config page unfortunately.
But there's an addon called: autoHideStatusbar
Not sure if it's FF5 compatible though. Try it.

Looked at that. Status bar's been hidden in FF5 whatever this is it's not the status bar any longer.

~above - can't recreate that on mine. Very odd.
