Thanks, I actually did fix it when I originally installed FF3, but I was referring to the behavior that everyone else sees by default. If it was a checkbox in the normal Firefox settings, that would be one thing, but its buried in a collection of keys and values with little documentation...

That brings me to another thing, the oh-so-cutesy "This might void your warranty" warning for about:config. I know they think they're being funny, but what would be a lot more useful is to actually explain whats going on, rather than scare users. I adjusted something for a less technical friend once, on their request, and they were slightly upset by the idea that Firefox could void the warranty on their computer. Seems rather immature, coming from the "Mozilla Corporation" with their flagship software...
