Why does the cursor keep going to the address bar and how can i stop it from doing that?

For some reason, one of your recent updates has added an irritating feature. Once a page has loaded, the cursor erases the web address and wants me to type in a search term. It doesn't stay in the screen for the email that I am trying to compose. It is a seriously annoying feature. I went on to your Support Page and have done everything to deactivate the feature, but it still does it. It is completely annoying.

How do I stop it?!?!? I am very close to not using Foxfire as my browser anymore!!!!
