Grrrrrr...

I hate the new bar.

When I type, I don't want a list of every possible url containing the same letters that I type. And I don't need a description of each url it displays. Luckily, the "oldbar" add-on restores the old look and feel. In fact, Firefox 3.1 will make the new behavior an option, so when I type 'us', I get usnews, and not toys-r-us.
