Firefox 3rc1 and its annoying address-bar

Asked by Arikael in Mozilla Web Browser, Firefox Web Browser

Tags: firefox 3, location, address

Hi experts

Just downloaded the new Firefox version.
So far so good, but there is one really annoying thing.
In earlier version when I typed something into the addressbar, firefox just suggested websites which contained the typed in string at the beginning of an URL
Now it also looks for the website title etc.
So when I type in "forum" (for example) Firefox now shows me every website with "forum" in the title first, then all whose URL start with "forum" and at last the one who contain "forum" somwhere in the middle of its URL.

How can I get back the old behaviour?
I just found the oldbar addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6227) but this just bring back the old look-n-feel, the behaviour behind it is still the same
