this problem just started a couple days ago. When I enter a web site on the browser bar and click the enter key nothing happens. Its like the browser bar doesn't recognize info has been entered. everything works if I use search through google or another search engine. If I use internet explorer I am not having the same problem. I didn't have this problem two days ago. I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled the program and still the problem exists. My IT guys at work were stumped. Are you? I would hate to have to start using a different browser. I have used firefox for years.

Do you have AVG Safe Search installed? It blocks use of the Enter key after typing in a search string.

Disable it by clicking the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. You should be able to find it in there.
