Seems to duplicate what's already available in "History". What's the point? :dntknw: I very much dislike anything covering up what might be on the page, including forcing me to scroll horizontally!!!! That is simply RUDE!!! :stop: :soapbox: :thumbdown: :fool:

I rarely use FF, although I actually did this morning. Apparently www.defense.gov doesn't like people to use VPNs. Safari flatly refused to open the site until I disconnected my VPN. :wallbash:

For those who are interested, I applied the hack provided in the link in my first post and FF works just fine and dandy. So give it a whirl if you don't like the new search bar.
