Remove Headers Stuck To The Top Of Websites You View? Like The menus At the top of websites that take up half the screen and dont go away when you scroll down.
To deal with sticky headers specifically, you can also subscribe to the Web Annoyances Ultralist (theSubscribe button is on the sidebar), but it might be a little too aggressive. If you have issues with it, report them directly to the list authors.
