it happens on ever web site, I type somewhere on any site and the cursor keeps jumping back up to the address bar. and when there is an address in the bar it flickers and sometimes disappears and then if I click to another page and then click back the address appears, the worst is when I try typing in the description section of ebay it leaps back to address bar every other letter. Please kindly help me so this stops, it is totally ruining my web experience Thank you sincerely Joe

hello Joe, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...
