Hi there.

That sounds like Find As You Type, see here for further information on this feature: http://website-archive.mozilla.org/www.mozilla.org/access/access/type-ahead/.

To check if you have the feature enabled, go to about:preferences#advanced (type or copy into Firefox's address bar) and see if there is a tick in the box for Search for text when I start typing. If there is, remove it.

If there was no tick in the box, go to about:config, promise to be careful, and search for the preference accessibility.typeaheadfind. If its value is true, double-click it to change it to false and the feature should be disabled.

You may have to restart Firefox for the change to take effect.

Does this resolve the issue?
