You may have switched on caret browsing.

You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.

Hi gdmatrix!

Can you download the latest version of Firefox and see if this still happens?

If that doesn't help, try running Firefox in safe-mode.

  • Firefox -> Help -> Restart with add-ons disabled

If it works in safe-mode, that means one of your Add-on Extensions is causing the problem, which will require disabling them all, and then re-enabling them one by one to isolate the problem.

Thank you for your help. That could of very well have happened in some frantic pecking.

Thanks again
