In FF4, how can I remove the 'apps' toolbar?

(My computer screen is now smaller than before due to this new black strip. A 'right click' doesn't help. the "+" on the left only takes me to 'conduit'. I am not interested in this feature at all.)

Thanks, Reg.

Do you want to hide the Tab Bar?

No, I like the 'Tab' bar. What I don't care for is the bar below the bookmark bar where one can add 'apps'.

Mine is empty ... just a black bar making my usable screen smaller. When I click on the "+" at the extreme right of that bar a new tab opens up taking me to 'Conduit' so that I can ad these 'apps'.

Thanks for the response!

I had the same problem and was able to remove the empty apps bar by doing the following:

1. Click on Tools in Mozilla; 2. Click on Add-Ons; 3. Click on Extensions; 4. Look for an add-on called Conduit app; 5. Click to the right of Conduit app to Remove Conduit App; and 6. Restart Firefox: hooray - it's gone!
