But this is a part that cannot be eliminated:
A User finds a hint on the internet for Firefox. He does not find the
option mentioned in this tip because it is removed for some reason in
Versio^H^H on some day.
He will now search for hours if he does something wrong.

For now it is more like:
A User finds a hint on the internet for Firefox 5. He does not find
the option mentioned in this tip because it is removed for some reason
in Versio^H^H on some day.
He will now look in the about dialog and sees he is running Firefox 6,
and will easyly find out this option is removed.

The version number is btw. the only reason i open the about dialog, if
i try to support someone with his problems. So if you remove the
version number you can remove the whole about item.
