Annoying Firefox Problem

I’ve been having a very annoying problem with Firefox for a while now and I can’t seem to find a way to fix it.

How it should work

I’ll type in an address into the address bar and hit the Enter key or click the arrow to go to the location I typed in.

The Problem

From time to time the “Go to the address in the Location Bar”/Hitting the Enter key will stop working. I can click the arrow or press the Enter key as many times as I like, but the page will not go to the typed address.

It continues to do this when I open New Tabs, but works fine if I open a New Window.

Getting it to work right

I have a lot of tabs open at any time, so opening a New Window doesn’t help. I normally have to Restart Firefox and hope it doesn’t have the same problem when Firefox comes back.

Possible Extension problem?

One of my friends thought it may have been a problem with an Extension, so I ask people who say they also have the problem, if they use any of the extensions I use. In my earlier Plurk on the problem, a person mentioned that they use the Add-On Better GReader, which I use.

Anyone else using this Extension and having these problems?
