Turn Off Tabs in Firefox
OK, I'm a reactionary, but how can I turn off tabbed browsing in Firefox 2.0? I don't find them worth the screen area they occupy.
Is going back to 1.5 the only solution?

"tools" "options" "tabs" ...set "new pages should be opened in a new window" is probably the closest you'll get.
But if you don't like tabbed browsing, just don't use it.
Personally, I got used to it real fast.

Under go to options and 'Display --> Tab Bar'. There is an option that allows you to hide the tab bar if only one tab is open.
For the record I think you are quite mad! As far as I am concerned trying to access the internet without tabbed browsing is a slow and painful process.
However, to each his own....
