On the left hand side of the page in the bottom corner, the web address pops up every time a new page is loading. What if I don't want that? How do I disable it?

The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages or URL links, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

I downloaded the Status-4-Evar add-on, but it didn't give me the capability to get rid of the add-on bar. I'm working on a netbook, and the add-on bar takes up valuable real estate. It's MUY annoying to have it reappear every time I change web pages. So annoying, in fact, that I'm moving to another browser until you fix it.  :(

miss.bev.brown, Right-click on a toolbar, then click on teh "Add-on bar" entry to de-select it.

If the add-on bar keeps coming back, you will have an add-on that is causing this. One that does this is the McAfee Site Advisor, disabling or uninstalling it stops that from happening.
