I am trying to find a way to break sync as painlessly as possible. I cannot allow my users to have sync for security reasons. So far I have attempted to edit the userChrome.css (scripts at the bottom) in the default profile to hide the tools menu elements and options pane for sync but it doesn't seem to be working despite trying about a half dozen code samples in it. I also tried modifying browser.xul directly in the omni.jar file but it doesn't seem to be an ordinary jar and my repackaged omni.jar breaks firefox. So I'm at a loss. Whats the best course of action to take?

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

I have tried following in userChrome.css

  1. BrowserPreferences radio[label="Sync"] {display: none !important;}
  1. BrowserPreferences radio[pane="paneSync"] {display: none !important;}
  1. bookmarksMenu,
  2. PersonalToolbar { display:none !important; }
  1. toolbar-context-menu menuitem:not([id="toggle_toolbar-menubar"]), /*

Hide all menu items except menubar */

  1. toolbar-context-menu menuseparator /* Hide all menuseparators */

{ display:none !important;}

#BrowserPreferences radio[pane="paneSync"] { display: none !important; }

And a few others I can't seem to recall at the moment

One way that I know of:

Tools => Options = Sync = Manage Account => Change Password => Enter a password that only YOU know.

That is an option but I would like to do something that will automatically lock out the feature for every profile that will ever be created on the computer such as editing the userChrome.css and placing it in the default/profile folder.
