New window, shows a form box "search with DuckDuckGo or enter address" when I type it jumps to the top address bar. I want to type in the form on the screen, I don't want nor expect it to go to the address bar. If I wanted the address bar, i would start typing there. This just messes with my head!

Can this be turned off, or better removed from firefox? The one thing I like(d) about firefox is that unlike Microsoft (who knows better than you what you are thinking and what you want to do) it actually followed your commands. Don't be like Microsoft.
