Firefox trys to load a page when middle-key pressed even when no link focused, if an area of plain text selected, firefox trys to load the text as URI, but when no text selected, firefox also attempts to load a page, which address is uncertain, sometimes a dialog pops up and tell me that "This URL is invalid and cannot be loaded".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any web page.
2. Select some text.
3. Press the middle key.
Actual Results:  
Firefox opens a page of which URI is the selected text.

Expected Results:  
Nothing should happen.

Maybe this bug only exists on Mandriva 2009.0(zarapha), firefox works fine on Ubuntu.
