I have browser.tabs.animate = false . Also I have userChrome.css in my profile with this: 

   @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

   tab-throbber { display: none !important }

But I still see animated circles in the tab header.

How to make them still? I whould prefer circles to be still present (gray, then red), but not animated.

the animate pref is for when you move tabs around, not the throbber if I remember right.

So how to stop it being animated? Is it sort of animated *.gif used for them (so I can replace them with non-animated versions?)
