Do you mean the snippet container on the about:home page?
Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named about:home with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).
That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
No, Please clear your mind and only focus on what I am going to try to explain again. When the Firefox Homepage is displayed (on my computer) there is a Firefox/Google search box in the center of the page, just like most computers that use Google as their search engine. Approximately one half an inch below the search box there is another box that comes up and has some ridiculous and idiotic links to extraneous garbage. There are little icon like animals in the left portion just inside of the text like box. I forget the stupid question that the text box displays, but I was stupid enough to play along and ended up in some sort of a question answer thing. Does not anybody including Firefox have just a regular homepage with no crap attached? Aren't there any places in Firefox for serious?minded persons or do I have to switch back to IE 8...
That is the snippet container. You can hide that container or set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to an empty String on the about:config to make Firefox use some default snippets.
You can hide the box that shows the snippets with code in userContent.css
You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

@-moz-document url(about:home){
/* hide snippet container on the about:home page */
#snippetContainer { display: none !important; }
}
Can you attach a screenshot if you mean something else?
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
