In FF9 there's a bar that appears above the addon bar (if it is there). That bar contains information about the url of the link the mouses is hovering or the information about the data that is being downloaded. That bar appears on the left side or on the right side depending on where the mouse was hovering last time (the bottom left of the window or the bottom right of the window). (I don't know its name) How can I force the bar to stay on the left when the mouse is not there? I mean, theres a "sensor" that detects when the mouse is hovering the bar and sends it to the other side of the screen.

Suppose the bar is on the left and showing information. I hover it with the mouse, it goes to the right. After I remove the mouse from that place, it stays on the right. I wanted it to go to the left, how can I accomplish that?

Hi,

Installing Barlesque may help.

That is not what I want. I don't want to do anything to the addon bar. I want to do that to the text that appears above it that shows the url of the link the mouse is hovering or the current thing firefox is loading

That switching is done to prevent (blinking) problems when you hover a link at the bottom that covers the link pop-up.

You can use the Status-4-Evar extension to modify that behavior of data that previously appeared on the Status bar.

Nice try but it does not solve the problem completely :S and creates new ones :(
