User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0
Build ID: 20111104165243

Steps to reproduce:

Installed Firefox 8, (on Windows 7).


Actual results:

It shows this extra white space margin at the bottom of the window, below the "Find:" area and below the Add-on Toolbar if its present, in the surrounding frame.  

It is about 3/4 high and extends all the way across the entire bottom of the page. 

The extra margin prevents you from showing a page in full-screen as it gets in the way of the bottom task bar 


Expected results:

There should be no such extra margin.  The attachment shows this extra space.  Look below the "Find:" section in
Attempt to work-around succeeds.  

I temporarily disabled all add-ins. Shut-down Firefox.  Restarted.  The extra margin went away.  

I shutdown and restarted again.  Now, only Fast Youtube Downloader 1.2.2 and GWT Developer Plugin for Firefox 1.0.10700 were disabled (they have been at least marked as incompatible).  I turned them both on, shutdown and restarted Firefox again and extra margin comes back. 

It appears to be related to A) having an incompatible add-on turned on, B) having a particular incompatible add-on (one of the above 2).
