Default How does one stop link scrubbing in FireFox?

I'm trying to clear my site of link scrubs ( the dotted outline many sites have when you click a link.) I've done it for visitors viewing my site in IE by using Project Seven's famous IE link scrubber, however I'd like my site to do as Revision3.com and not show link scrubs in Firefox. Does anyone have a reference on how to best do this or better yet the answer

Example of link scrubs:

Not scrubbed ( click on logo )

Scrubbed ( click on logo )

Link outlines (and subsequent popularity of 'scrubbing' them, as you say) became an issue when Firefox 1.5 was released. An annoying bug caused negative text-indent to be included in the region the outline is based on, resulting in the outline on simple links (most notably through some variation of FIR) stretching all the way to the left of the window.

The fix:

Code:
:focus {
 outline: none;
}
Get the full scoop.
