Moving the immovable -- that McAfee SiteAdvisor toolbar in Firefox
Actually it does seem to be immovable -- I've tried a number of techniques (floats, CSS-positioning, CSS-transforms) and haven't been able to just simply move the control one pixel, let alone to somewhere less intrusive within the toolbox element.
Hiding it without disabling I can do. Here's how:
In your ...Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\..profile..\chrome folder, add the following UserChrome.css
Restart Firefox, and the waste of vertical space is gone.
You can tell how well crafted the control is, when you look at the XUL and see that it's a toolbaritem naked in the toolbox, rather than actually being in a toolbar.

Yea! It works! I reclaimed a half inch of screen space. Now when I create a new ticket in Spiceworks I can see the whole ticket without scrolling.
Thanks so much, works.
Can this also be done in IE 8?
For IE you don't get the same freedom to play around with the layout. OTOH, in IE you can just click the [x] and disable the toolbar.
Thank you for the solution. I have been struggling looking at menubar space wasted.
