Since upgrading to Firefox 10.0.2 my AVG extension has had to be disabled, as after typing in any web address in the address bar, the enter key had no effect and I could not go to the site without pressing the Reload arrow on right.

I have recently upgraded Firefox to the latest version 10.0.2. After that I could not enter any website address and press the enter key and get to the website, nor could I select a website from the dropdown list of previously visited websites. The only way I could get there was by pressing the arrow on the right side of the address box (Reload current page). Once I disabled the AVG extension, everything worked normally. As soon as I enabled the AVG extension, it stopped working again.

Known issue. See:

try what sc123 suggested on above link. Send a email to support@avg.com with your full license key and let them know. I am sure its AVG related issue not Firefox.:)

Didn't realise others had had this problem. I have just emailed AVG, as you suggested. Thanks.

basilsfriend -- The ENTER key will work with the latest version of AVG. I have AVG 2612.0.1913, AVG Safe Search 12.0.0.1912, FF10.0.2 and Windows XP SP3. The "Enter Key" works. So make sure you update your AVG to the latest version (2612.0.1913), then enable AVG Safe Search in FF add-on again.
