Hello, I have just installed the latest version of FF on my windows 7.

When I search using google-search by either: 1. Writing somethong in the adress bar and pressing enter 2. Writing something in the search box (thats on the same line as the adress bar)

I am not being redirected automatically to the first result.

How can I change it so that I will go to the first result automatically after pressing enter ?

Thanks in advance for the help!
