zotero forces the add-on bar to always open

Zotero forces my add-on bar to always open. This occurs even when, under the zotero preferences, I select "none" for the status bar icon (extensions.zotero.statusBarIcon is set to 0). Even if I click on the add-on bar and uncheck it, it will always reappear when firefox is reopened. This issue did not exist prior to installing zotero. I am using firefox 11.
(Zotero looks nice, but I cannot stand the add-on bar continually reappearing and needlessly taking up valuable space on my screen).
Thanks for any help anyone can provide!
  • Hmm. Nevermind. I disabled zotero, restarted firefox, and then re-enabled zotero. That seems to have magically fixed the problem.
  • note that Firefox 11 is quite outdated and Zotero might stop functioning properly with this version in the future. You should update to the current Firefox version, which is 19.
  • (or at a minimum the current extended support release, which is 17ESR) Using Firefox 11 exposes you and other to potential security threats.
