Annoyance in firefox.

Ever notice that if you start typing a url it gives you a menu of all urls contained within history that have those letters? Well that's normal. Every browser does that.

BUT...

The next part isn't normal.

Click the url you want it to go to and half the time it goes to a different url that contains the same starting letters.

Example. When I type in 'ad' i get the options for all the urls that start with 'ad'. I click the url I want and I end up at adaware.com 50% of the time instead.

Same with gfy. Sometimes I chose gfy.com but end up at gfyboard.com instead.

Or, I type in sex... then chose sexocean but end up at sex.com instead half the time.
