My Firefox doesn't open instantly but after a while it shows a message that one of the scripts have crashed with the options to either continue or stop script. After the main window is opened there's a message that Firefox cannot open the Toolbar. "Enter" also does not work in the address bar after this issue.

I'll add additional information if requested.

That is also indicative of a problem with an add-on. Use the method in the link I posted previously to identify what one is causing the problem.

That indicates you have an incompatible add-on, possibly the AVG Security Toolbar.

Try disabling the AVG Security Toolbar to see if that stops the error. To do that in the Tools menu select Add-ons to open the add-ons manager. In the list of extensions click on the AVG Security Toolbar to select it, then click the Disable button. Restart Firefox to see if that helps.

The AVG Safe Search add-on may also not be compatible.

I think it was disabled before the issue but your advice helped. Thank you!

What about the other issue? When an address typed, hitting "Enter" does not seem triggering the process. It works in forms though.
