The only thing I think is possible is to open a new window from a page
that does not have a status bar (or any bars for that matter). That may
not work out in Firefox as those links are typically opened in a new
tab, which doesn't get you anything.
Maybe knowing why you want to hide the status bar will make it easier to
give some tips.
