With a url in the navigation toolbar url box and the active cursor also in the box, pressing <enter> does not activate the url and send the browser to that site. Works in Chrome, IE 64bit, etc. but not FF.

The AVG Safe Search extension is the culprit! Disable that add-on and now all is well. Perhaps a fix will come in a new release of FF.

Not sure, but AVG may have updated the extension to correct the errors, or would possibly update it in the next version. Please also see this.
