Every time I mouse over a link it flashes the web address in the lower left or right corners of the browser window. I find it to be distracting, and of no use, as soon as you mouse over it, it disappears. I would love to get rid of this.

The How can I hide the status bar in 57? has the answer for this question. You have to make a userChrome.css file to modify the visibility of the status bar in Firefox.

Hope this helps.
