Something changed recently - now I have to press the "arrow" to go to a website from the location bar. Is there a setting that I can change?

Very recently my Firefox has changed. I used to be able to start typing, say, "www.google.com" in my location bar window. This would bring up a dropdown list of recent websites and I would just click the "www.google.com" line. Firefox would immediately take me to that website with the one click.

But now, if I click on the "www.google.com" line, it simply puts the "www.google.com" into the location bar window, not sending me to google. I have to press the arrow at the right hand side of the location bar to go the google page.

So, something changed last week - maybe a setting got updated? I've looked at the options page and can't seem to find anything that applies.

Hi, thanks! I disabled the AVG toolbar and that put it all back the way I was used to. I didn't need or want that anyway. Karen
