This is actually on my wife's computer but, apparently she recently upgraded to 3.6.13 and now the enter key doesn't work in the address bar. I can enter a URL but can never go to it because the enter key is totally non functional in the address bar. Chrome works fine and other apps work fine. The enter key works here in this text box and in the search area but not in the address bar. Weird huh!

Try disabling the AVG Safe Search extension in Tools > Addons > Extensions

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

  • Java Plug-in 1.4.2_03 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

In my Windows 7 64, my Java was update, but dissabling AVG search and restarting the problem was solved

Thanks a lot

@the-edmeister:

I've been having this same problem since I started using Fx4bx, I never thought AVG would be the problem.

Addon disabled, compatibility report filed, and happy again! :)
