How to hide the loading information boxes in the corners of the screen?
When you hover over links in Firefox (not specifying, I'm pretty sure most browsers do that, but I'm exclusively using Firefox), it presents you information of the link in the corners of the browser window. Is there any way, some kind of option or something to hide that?

Here is the image that didn't upload the first run.
Add the following code to your userChrome.css file.
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); statuspanel {display: none !important;}
Do you want to hide all these status messages?
Note that you can use this more specific selector to only hide links if you want to see messages shown during page load so you know what happens.
statuspanel[type="overLink"] .statuspanel-label { display:none!important; }

Do I have to add this after the first line of TyDraniu or will it work on its own?
Hi helpspls, those are two different alternatives.
This one --
statuspanel {
display: none !important;
}
-- hides the panel no matter what is showing in it.
This one --
statuspanel[type="overLink"] .statuspanel-label {
display: none !important;
}
-- only hides the panel when it contains a particular kind of message, identified by the type="overLink" (as in, hovering your mouse over a link). So that would allow loading status messages, for example.
It's usually a good idea to only hide the minimum necessary until you decide that you want to hide more.
