MSFX - A Internet Explorer 5 theme for Firefox.
Known Issues: Bookmarks toolbar on top of Address bar. Unfortunately, my knowledge in JS is very little and do not know how to make it under the Address bar. You have to use one of the Additional Toolbars for bookmarks.
Application Menu has no icon, I cannot hide this or else notification popups would be broken.
Menu bar items sometimes mispositioned, and if you're using Tahoma as the system font.- A (B) might appear next to the Favorites menu item.
Things that require improvement:Future Plans: - Theming Firefox pages to look more "classic". (e.g., about:config, about:profiles)
Theming scrollbars to use Classic Theme.
Instructions in installing this theme are in the README file.

I think it's ok if I give away the scrollbar that notzetkin sent me. If I understood him correctly it's someone else's work and he modified it to make it look like a classic themed scrollbar and I then modified it to prevent it from getting larger or smaller depending on the zoom settings of the website (because that's what it normally does, which looks terrible). However it's only suitable for a resolution of 1920x1080. It can be modified to suit other screen resolutions by changing the ... min-width: 0.8vw !important; max-width: 0.8vw !important; ...settings to something else, like 1.2vw or 0.5vw One would have to try to find the perfect size for one's screen resolution.

The scrollbar code doesn't work properly for me, it's way too small. My monitor is 1080p.

That's why I said that you have to modify the code. Try to change the min-width and max-width to a higher value like 1.2vw or even higher. You'll see the change and will be able to modify it to your liking.
You don't have to modify every value separately, you can just replace every 0.8vw with a higher value automatically.

HOTFIX: 1.1.0
- Added option to show/hide favicons on tabs. Favicons on tabs are the default option.
- Fixed tabs on Firefox 105. MSFX will from now on, have release versions of Firefox in mind, not ESR. Not my fault if things are broken on ESR.

I forgot to say, ui.prefersReducedMotion has to be set to 1 in about:config for MSFX to work properly.

I suggest to disable urlbar formatting (browser.urlbar.formatting.enabled in about:config)

VEEEERY SLIGHT UPDATE: 1.2.1
- Theme works much better in dark mode. Back and forward icons when disabled will change color depending on color scheme.
- Real Bookmarks toolbar is now under the Address bar. There is no longer a use for using another additional toolbar. You may need to restore to defaults when customizing the browser if you can't find Bookmark toolbar items.
- Dropdown button on Address bar is gone. It was useless and only for visual. And it conflicted with when you zoomed in the page.

I have encountered an... issue with creating and closing tabs. Essentially, if I close a tab, it leaves a blank space on the tab bar. It's... less noticeable when the tab I closed is at the end of the row, but it's very obvious if the tab I closed is in the middle of the tab row.
On occasion, this can lead to several gaps in the tab bar, which is somewhat annoying. If the tab I closed just happens to be the first tab in the list, it creates an empty spot right at the very front.
Attached also is a video demonstrating the issue in real life.

Try setting ui.prefersReducedMotion in about:config to 1. I've encountered the same issue when it was set to 0.

Right so. That setting did not exist by default. I had to create the setting and then set it to 1. Doing that fixed it.
I suggest adding that to the readme file for the next release. At any rate, many thanks.
