Hi, Ive just updated from FFox 3.6 to 11. I hope I explain this correctly? whenever I open a new tab, and I have an add on called new tab homepage, I have to click in the search bar to enable me to type in it. If I dont it will type in the address bar (at the top) This never happened in version 3, and yes I have tried disabling new tab homepage with the same result. Is there a fix, or have I overlooked something? Thanks
