    My pet peeves with FF4 is the open new tab thing has dissapeared next to the existing tab, I had to place the icon near the URL...

    Also, secure websites don't show the 'lock' or change colour in the URL area to show it's a 'secure' website.... are FF being a bit anal over 'secure' websites?

    Lastly, no more status bars at the bottom...

    I hope FF5 will be better

    Im running 3 at the moment, but im pretty sure i was able to enable the status bar from the view menu?

    and for those that hate the tabs at the top, that can be moved back to the bottom aswell (once again, ive gone back to 3 so cant remember how i did it, somewhere through the view menu aswell)
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    I'm running 4, and I can't find that. Although any addon that used to integrate with the status bar does bring a vestige of it back up, it doesn't re-integrate the standard functions like the display of link URL - that is still 'in-page'.

    and for those that hate the tabs at the top, that can be moved back to the bottom aswell (once again, ive gone back to 3 so cant remember how i did it, somewhere through the view menu aswell)
    Yep, that's in the view menu. Click here to enlarge

    The Status Bar is now called the Add On Bar. Turn it on via the View .. Toobars menu. And yes, URLs still won't display on there - they sit in a little popup above it. I'd be surprised if someone hasn't already hacked an extension to do it the old way - and they have. Apparently you have to install, then do the customise toolbar thing to drag the status text field down to the add on bar to get it visible again.
