I upgraded to Firefox 5, and whenever I type in a url in the address bar for a site, it brings up a search in Yahoo instead of going directly to the site I typed in. How do I change this to stop using a search engines and go directly to the site typed in?

I clicked the icon at the beginning of the address bar and it lists several search engines, but didn't see how to stop using the search engines.

Forgot to mention that this is on a Vista machine and noticed I don't see any addresses (urls) at all in the address bar when going from website to website.
