location bar not working anymore

I updated Firefox last night, and now the location bar is not working. If I click on a full link after typing in part of it (e.g. fac brings up www.facebook.com) it doesn't connect; neither does hitting "enter" after typing in an address (with or without http://) connect me. The only way to connect to a site is to click my home button, or to click the "go" arrow at the end of the bar. This is incredibly annoying! What can I do about it?

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.
(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)

  • You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.

Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.

If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

That issue can be caused by the AVG Safe Search extension

Yes, it was indeed the AVG extension, which I double-checked using the methods in the first response. Thank you for you help!!
