Pressing "Enter" in the address bar (Windows XP) does nothing, I have to click the green arrow button to navigate to a new page/site; how do I get enter to work again?
Ever since the latest upgrade, my address bar doesn't work right, or rather "enter" does not work to navigate to the selected site.
I have Windows XP, so don't have the "awesome" bar; the menu items and tabs and everything all look the same as before the upgrade; it's just that the enter key doesn't work in the address bar any more.

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Thanks so much! Now it works like a charm. :-)
You're welcome
Which extension caused it?
Was it an AVG extension or another extension?
Yes, it was the AVG SafeSearch add-on.
Thanks for confirming that.
Save yourself some time on major but not so obvious problem causes and solutions
Thanks, that was helpful!
