How do I eliminate the annoying seach icon in the lower right corner of a window?
It is in the right corner and appears in open windows. See the screenshot.

What do you get when you click this search icon?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

Hi james.przygocki, Maybe you can turn it off in that web site's Preferences?
I looked in the site's Preferences to turn it off, but could find no place to do this. It seems that there must be a way, but I could not find it.
It seems like something generated by that website. So you might have to manually add to into your Ad Blocker.
Or, it could be from an extension that you are using. Have you added any new extensions lately?
