As it turns out there’s another hidden option that might call „home“:
check „about:config“ -> „browser.search.suggest“ and switch this to false by clicking on it.

As i mentioned , Firefox is not that different when it comes to privacy than googles Chrome.

Well to make it short: Firefox 3 sends (by default) private things (in my opinion) to Mozilla and it’s Partners (which the biggest one is Google). I dunno really if what i’m telling you now is all you need to do, there might be some other hidden things, but it seems that by typing the almighty „about:config“ into the „awesomebar“, and then searching for „browser.safebrowsing.enabled“ and simply click the line (should be false now) stops this behaviour.

There are several other interesting things under the „browser.safebrowsing“ branch, but that’s another story written on another day.

As you may know, all browsers have a set of CSS features that are either considered a vendor extension (e.g. -ms-interpolation-mode), are partial implementations of properties that are fully defined in the CSS specifications, or are implementation of properties that exist in the CSS specifications, but aren’t completely defined. According to the CSS 2.1 Specification, any of the properties that fall under the categories listed previously must have a vendor specific prefix, such as ‘-ms-’ for Microsoft, ‘-moz-’ for Mozilla, ‘-o-’ for Opera, and so on.

As part of our plan to reach full CSS 2.1 compliance with Internet Explorer 8, we have decided to place all properties that fulfill one of the following conditions behind the ‘-ms-’ prefix
