I would like to be able to turn OFF the feature where the main FF screen is greyed out when an alert dialog pops up. For example, when you are in Yahoo Mail and you click the link to Empty the spam folder, and OK/Cancel alert dialog pops up saying "Are you sure you want to permanently delete the content of the Spam folder?". When this happens, the entire main screen is dimmed (grayed out). I hate this feature. I find it to be distracting and annoying. I prefer the alert just open up and let me address it appropriately. Can someone tell me how to turn off the gray out feature please?

Can one of the HMFICs around here please address this for me? Being left in limbo with a question is so out of character for this place...  :)
