Address/location bar always redirects to search, will not go to address.

When I type or paste an address into the address bar it will only take me to a search engine, never to the website address I typed.

Hi Mark, that's strange.

If you type something that looks like an address, say

example.com

then the top line of the drop-down should indicate

http://example.com/ -- Visit

Does yours always say Search with [default search engine], or does it say Visit but it actually searches instead?
