I was using preinstalled firefox on ubuntu. Everything ran fine till now. However, recently when I use firefox and time in url bar, not happens. No request is sent or recieved. The browser is totally in stale state. Only I can do is open new tabs and watch blank white page there as nothing would load. On parallel I have chrome which loads everything fine.

Just reinstalled firefox, same problem persists.
