Hi there,

I love the new Firefox 4! Great work. I'm using it on Windows 7 Ultimate, and the annoying thing is: when my Firefox browser windows are Maximized, and I press Ctrl+F to "Find/Search" for a pattern on a web-page, the Find/Search toolbar is now hidden by my Windows task-bar across the bottom of the screen. The only workaround I have for this is to set my Windows task-bar to "auto-hide", but I don't like doing that.

This wasn't a problem in Firefox 3.x. Please issue a fix for this asap, or let me know how to change my settings so the Find/Search toolbar shows up just above my Windows task-bar just like it used to.

Thanks!

Install this add-on: Status 4-Evar It replaces the status bar at the foot of the browser which Mozilla removed in FF4 for some strange reason.
