It used to be that all you had to do was type half a URL or the whole thing and press enter and the web page would load, now pressing enter does not work, how do I fix this?

Here is the very simple solution to remove AVG secure search from Firefox. 1. Go to Firefox "Help". 2. Click "Restart with Add-ons Disabled" 3. Click "Restart". 4. The browser will close and a pop-up box will open. 5. Select "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults". 6. Click "Make Changes and Restart".

That should do it.

Pressing Enter in the address bar doesn't work

The AVG Safe Search extension is causing an issue where pressing Enter when trying to go to a website does not work. You have to click the green go arrow instead. Until this is resolved you can work around this issue by disabling the extension:

At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP), and then click Add-ons. The Add-ons Manager tab will open.

  1. In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Extensions panel.
  2. Click Disable button next to the AVG Safe Search extension to disable it.
  3. Click Restart Firefox.
