Hello,

Just a quick question I hope. I am satisfied with the settings I have chosen in the "Privacy Settings" box that appears in new tabs. Is there any way to hide this now? I can't see any obvious options and I've had a quick look through about:config.

Many Thanks,
Tonux

Set "New tabs" to "Blank Page" in the "Home" section of Abrowser's "Preferences" (an entry in Abrowser's main menu).

Thanks for your answer, perhaps I should be more specific. How would I go about removing the "Privacy Settings" box but retain the rest of the new tab features, such as Web Search, Top Sites etc. I was hoping in the section of preferences where you could select these features there would be an option to disable the Privacy Settings box.

Thanks again,
Tonux

I don't know a direct way in about:config or elsewhere, but you can achieve the same result also by overriding the CSS of the about:home and about:newtab pages.
If not exist yet, create a userContent.css file inside a chrome folder in your Abrowser profile directory; edit the file with this code:
@-moz-document url("about:home"), url("about:newtab") {
div[style="border: 1px solid rgb(215, 215, 219); border-radius: 3px; margin-bottom: 40px; padding: 0px 15px 10px; color: rgb(74, 74, 79);"] {display: none;}
}

Remember to restart Abrowser.
