When there is a word on the screen that matches what i type (Eg: What), it automatically clears the bar and usually jump straight onto google search bar or the URL bar halfway through a word, so i'd be typing there all of a sudden, rather than staying on the Find Bar until i press enter to search.

I have not done anything except upgrade from 3.6 to 4. It is consistantly like this. with no exception. The best i can do is get a word typed. Does anyone know whats wrong?

Are you using the Default Theme? If not, switch to the Default Theme.

If it isn't a problem with a 3rd party Theme, try the Firefox SafeMode.
A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.

  1. You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.

If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
