Why does the location always read "go to a website" instead of the actual address?

If I were to go to www.amazon.com, why doesn't it show as this in the navigation bar? It always reads as "go to a website." I would like it show the exact http address like it always did.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).


Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
