Getting rid of the 'Recent bookmarks' list permanently

Hi,

I don't think you can customize the Firefox menu... Why do you want to remove this?

Hi, and thank you for your reply. While I'm pretty sure Firefox provides no easy way to remove this list, I do know others online have complained about this same thing and found ways to remove it via userChrome.css, but I'm wary of entering any code changing my browser unless that info comes from a reputable source, like these forums. I want to remove the list because, like most of the others who've complained about this, it makes privacy more difficult by retaining a list of websites visited via bookmarks, and that list remains regardless of your privacy settings. I can clear search history, of course, but I can't clear bookmark 'history'. Why does Firefox provide no option to clear it, I wonder, or de-activate it altogether if it's not wanted?

The list?

Not sure about your image, see mine??

Click on Bookmarks > Manage bookmarks > Select all (or what you want) delete.

or do you mean mean get rid of the link to them?

I imagine you could modify the menu via css, you will have to find the ID of the menu and child etc. of what you want to {display:none]
