Toolbar help popups won't go away

I recently installed Firefox 4 for Mac (OSX 10.6.7). The help balloons for the toolbar bookmarks continually pop up and won't go away, sometimes even when I am in another app and Firefox is in the background. I don't need these help balloons. How do I turn them off?

Solved my own problem:

1. Enter "about:config" in the address bar 2. find "browser.chrome.toolbar_tips" and change from "true" to "false"
