[6.0] Discovery links still enabled, even after removing discovery widget.
This is only my own opinion, but something that usually gets my goat when I'm browsing is when I come across a site that links random phrases to stuff. That being said, it's no secret that I had left the discovery widget disabled in Yoono.
So, I upgrade to 6.0.0 today and find that the discovery widget enabled itself during the upgrade. I go in, disable the widget, restart Firefox for good measure, and... the discovery links are still there.
This screencap tells all:

Inappropriate?Hello MusicMan. Actually, there is a way to disable discovery links within Yoono.
At the bottom right hand corner of Firefox, you'll see a magnifying glass. Simply click this and you'll see "enable discovery links" is checked. Simply click that and all of the "yoolinks" will be disabled.
Thanks for writing and I hope this is an acceptable solution.
I’m happy

Thanks. I managed to overlook the new icon on the status bar. Everything's fine and dandy now. -
