Remove new drop-down search menu entirely (again!)?

Since upgrading to 43.0.1, there is a small window popping up every time I type in the Search Bar, just like how there used to be several versions ago (see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1035637 for the previous issue). I have all search suggestions turned off, and I have browser.search.showOneOffButtons set to False in about:config. How do I make this new drop-down window go away?

Chosen solution

"browser.search.showOneOffButtons" was a temporary pref starting in Firefox 34. The underlying code that supported that preference is gone as of Firefox 43.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ has an option for Old search (experimental) in CTR Options > General UI (1)
