Version 83

Hello.

What happened to the pop-up blocker icon to the right of the URL address bar?

It used to show how many pop-ups were blocked during a session and had an option to 'allow' pop-ups on a specific website.

To be clear:

The 'block pop-up windows' setting has been enabled but there is no information bar below the URL bar.

Is the information bar only displayed when a pop-up is blocked?

In case I was unclear:

My pop-up blocker is enabled by default.

I am aware that when Firefox blocks a pop-up, an information bar is displayed along with an address bar icon.

Is it possible to display the information bar (so that I can keep track of pop-ups?) without Firefox blocking a pop-up first?

No, that isn't possible as far as I know.
