It used to be the case that only the urls that I actually typed in would be visable. Is it possible to remove the bookmarks from the drop down menu and only list the urls that I actually type in rather than the urls of every page I visit? |

Like a lot of other people I did not like the new Awesome bar (Aweful bar??) and found the Oldbar addon referred to above. It was good to get back to the old style address bar but I notice it is no longer coloured yellow when visiting secure websites. The padlock still shows but I found the yellow a useful addition. Anyone know how to get that back as well?
Apart from that FF3 seems to be a big improvement, particularly the speed of page render. -------------------- I'd like to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming in terror like his passengers
