I'd like to use the F7 button as a hotkey to play/pause my media player, however whenever I press it I get prompted about "cadet browsing". Checking the "Do not show me this dialogue box again" has no effect, it will continue to pop up.

In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you can disable the F7 shortcut that toggles caret browsing by setting the pref accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled to false on the about:config page if you do not want to use this feature.

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
