When I choose a site to go to from the address bar drop down, it doesn't automatically go to that site like it used to. I have to click the little arrow to 'go to this address' or hit enter.

As far as I'm aware, FF hasn't updated recently, and it just started doing this yesterday.

There's a few extensions that have been known to cause that issue. Maybe an extension was updated just prior to that problem starting for you.

Thanks! I checked the extensions and AVG safe search had updated on that day, and when I disabled it it fixed the problem. I had it disabled before...I guess an update got by me sometime and enabled it again.
