We apply a new description of thermal fundamental string probes to the studyof finite temperature Wilson loops in the context of the AdS/CFTcorrespondence. Previously this problem has been considered using extremalprobes even though the background is at finite temperature. The new descriptionof fundamental string probes is based on the blackfold approach. As a result ofour analysis we find a new term in the potential between static quarks in thesymmetric representation which for sufficiently small temperatures is theleading correction to the Coulomb force potential. We also find an order 1/Ncorrection to the onset of the Debye screening of the quarks. These effectsarise from including the thermal excitations of the string probe and demandingthe probe to be in thermodynamic equilibrium with the Anti-de Sitter black holebackground.
