How do I get rid of the new "status bar" at the bottom of the page where the web address pops up?

On the left hand side of the page in the bottom corner, the web address pops up every time a new page is loading. What if I don't want that? How do I disable it?

The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages or URL links, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

I downloaded the Status-4-Evar add-on, but it didn't give me the capability to get rid of the add-on bar. I'm working on a netbook, and the add-on bar takes up valuable real estate. It's MUY annoying to have it reappear every time I change web pages. So annoying, in fact, that I'm moving to another browser until you fix it.  :(

miss.bev.brown, Right-click on a toolbar, then click on teh "Add-on bar" entry to de-select it.

If the add-on bar keeps coming back, you will have an add-on that is causing this. One that does this is the McAfee Site Advisor, disabling or uninstalling it stops that from happening.
