Lolu chungechunge lwabekwa kunqolobane. Uyacelwa ubuze umbuzo omusha uma udinga usizo.

Firefox 4.0 is clunky with big ugly buttons. It looks bulky and busy. How do I keep 4.0 but with the look of the previous version? I have the default look and I don't want to add any backgrounds or any themes.

How do I streamline all the 4.0 features, but without adding any skins, themes or backgrounds? Basically I want to keep the default of the previous Firefox version as this new 4.0 is ugly and bulky and it does not make for smooth navigation. I don't want to add any customizations that will slow down my computer so I want it like the previous version. I would rather try to correct this than go back to a previous version. Thanks.

Thanks for the article. I've done some of the suggestions but it is still not the same....Does anyone else miss the status bar? Even with installing the add on for it, it did not work for me. Overall, the article suggestions made a definite improvement. What was Mozilla thinking with this version? But thanks for pointing me to that article!
