My Firefox just updated to the latest version. In all previous versions I was able to turn off tabbed browsing, but can not seem to find that option in the latest version. I absolutely HATE tabs. One of the reasons I continued to use Firefox was that I could shut the tabs off. If this is the way the Firefox browser is heading I will have to discontinue using it on all of our computers. We use multiple screens so that we can have any new windows pop up on the second screen and easily close them without disrupting the original browser window. Also we like to keep the browser bar at the top of the screen minimized as much as possible. With the tab bar in the way it causes the browser bar to take up too much valuable screen space. Please add the option to remove tabbed browsing back in.
