What is the download status bar in FF4? I can't tell if my download is complete or stalled or anything of the sort from what I see right now.

How do you tell the status of your download now? I dont have any little indication if I don't separately open up the download status box or use Download them all.

You can add that feature with the Status-4-Evar add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/status-4-evar

Thanks so much for the link to that add-on. Problem Solved.

Installing an additional add-on is no proper solution to this. There should be a built-in status indication in FF 4. I don't want to use a status bar, because it needs extra space. Why isn't FF providing a status indicator that can be dragged to the toolbar or elsewhere?
