As soon as you move the cursor over a control element in Firefox, it displays help text as a tool tip. What can be useful in the initial days of working with th browser becomes annoying in the long run. For instance, the tool tip blocks access to bookmarks tool bar when you want to drag a new address from the address bar to the bookmarks tool bar using drag and drop.
The help function of the tool tip can be disabled by making a change in the settings in the advanced configuration of the browser. To do this, type 'about:config' in the address bar and hit [Enter]. The next step is to search for the 'browser.chrome.toolbar_tips' entry in the displayed list, by entering the initial letters of the entry in the 'Filter' domain. After that, right-click on the true value and select the 'Change' context command. Once you set this value to 'false', Firefox no longer displays any help text.
