    How doI get rid of tabs in Firefox?

    I have Firefox 8.0.1 running on 10.5.8. I hate tabs and want to get rid of them. Is there a setting to do so? I know there is a setting to display them on top or bottom but want to get rid of them altogether. If there is no setting, can someone tell me how to do it in Terminal? Happy Holidays

    How can I get rid of favicon in Firefox toolbar?

    No, I do not want to delete the bookmark, just the "favicon" next to the bookmarks on the toolbar. The favicon is the small icon next to each bookmark.

    Recording Music

    I am by far behind the rest of the world when it comes to doing stuff with audio. I have a CD for which I would like to take a small sampling of each song and create a new CD. Sort of like a movie trailer which only shows a few scenes. I do not even know where to begin. Is there software...

    How do I know Big Brother isn't watching through my built-in camera?

    That's cute. I like the part where it says: "ideal for checking your e-mails in your birthday-suit." Do you know if there is a particular port that can be blocked using Little Snitch? But that would be a pain if other applications needed to use the same port.

    Downloading files on the internet

    Hmm, I created the file and named it correctly. I also copied and pasted the code. I also put it in the correct directory but when I log out and in again it does not work. Same stupid dialogue appears.
