A white star is indicating that the page has not been bookmarked yet while a yellow star is indicating that the page is already in the bookmarks. Some users prefer the old way of adding bookmarks by using the shortcut CTRL D.

If you are one of the users who prefers the old way and wants to get rid of the star which does not have another function than the ones described above you can do that by adding an entry to the userChrome.css file in the Firefox profile.

Just add the line #star-button {display:none !important;} to the end of that file to remove the star from Firefox 3. The Mozilla Knowledgebase is explaining how you can find the Firefox profile folder.
