I have been using the add-on URL SUFFIX for years.

I haven't changed any settings. I used to be able to type into the URL bar, AOL and it would add the necessary www. and .com at the end.

Any site that I enter, be it Sears or Bravotv or what have you, I automatically get a search page, with what I'm looking for as the first answer, but in the Url bar, something with Google and a few + signs and greyed out areas now show.

I have the latest version of Firefox for Mac, and all of my plugins and add ons are up to date. Also, my Firefox updates are current.

Thanks.

SOLVED.. add - on called BROWSE BY NAME 1.1 for Firefox, allows you to type into the url bar, without taking you to a google search page.

I just added it and tried it and it works great. Solved my problem on my own . WOuld have deleted the question but I can't figure out how. :)
