   Status bar on FF4 has been removed with FF4b7pre (I think) and there seems to   
   be no plan to bring it back. See thread "How to bring back Status Bar on   
   Firefox 4"   
   in Mozilla newsgroup mozilla.support.firefox on server news.mozilla.org:

   You may either use SeaMonkey 2.1x (which fortunately does not seem to follow   
   this silly configuration oversimplification race of FF) or install an extension   
   to get the status bar back (link was posted in the thread above):   
   https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/235283/   
      
   I tried it on OS/2 with Rich's latest 4.0b8pre and it works fine. Additionally   
   it shows the load progress as a green line in the location bar. To make it   
   visible   
   you have to show the Add-On toolbar. You may configure it in the Add-On   
   manager.   
   Let's hope the extension will still be available for final FF4.
