When I first start Firefox, the following happens: The symbol to the left of the input box is faded out. After typing a website to load, nothing happens.

I can load a website by using the Google Search. After doing this, Firefox seems to run ok.

If you start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox, does it work? there is perhaps an extension that is interfering with Firefox's normal operation. If it works in Safe Mode, you can try disabling your extensions one-by-one until you find the culprit. How to disable extensions, Personas, and plugins

Firefox works ok when started in safe mode. Without making any changes (disabling plugins), exiting Firefox, and then restarting Firefox, it works ok. Since I cannot duplicate the problem, I am not able to determine which plugin is causing the problem. The problem is partially solved due to your suggestion. Will report when I finally solve the problem.

The problem has been solved. Thank you for your help. I had 2 autofill plugins that I disabled. The 2 plugins are: Autofill 3.5 and Autofill Forms 0.9.8.3. I have re-enabled Autofill Forms and Firefox is working ok now. Again thanks for your help.
