User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120121 Firefox/3.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120121 Firefox/3.0.5

At start-up when typing at the history search bar I don't get any results. In fact even if I type the whole address and type enter I can't get to it (nothing happens). If i tab around until I get back to the address bar everything works fine. This bug is cross platform (also on my laptop on linux).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start firefox
2. (The caret starts at the address bar) type anything, including a valid URL.
3. Observe that nothing happens. :-)
Actual Results:  
FAll

Expected Results:  
Search resu;lt from history and book marks for a partial URL or generate an HTTP request when a vali http url is typed in.

Thanks for that. It seems to have been caused by "Web Search Pro" plugin. Cheers
