Opening a new tab in Firefox 16.0.1 the focus is on the address bar but then moves to the search field
When I open a new tab in Firefox 16.0.1 the focus is on the address bar for a second or so then the focus moves to the search input field. If I start typing something the first character fills in the address bar then the rest is typed into the search field.
How do I get the focus to remain in the address bar as per previous versions please?
MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.2 Firefox 16.0.1
Thanks.
