How do I remove the "recent" section that shows up when I right click firefox on my taskbar?
When I right click on firefox window in my taskbar it shows a "recent" section that displays my recent downloads above the "close this window" and other options. I find this annoying and I would like to remove it. I already have set firefox to not remember my download history, but that didn't help.

- In the FF address bar, type "about:config", without the quotes
- Press the enter key
- In the filter, type "taskbar", without the quotes
- Double-click the value for browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled to change from true to false
- Double-click the value for browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled to change from true to false
