at times (like now!), when using YM and YA, i cannot use contractions. they bring up the find bar. why?

when writing an email or, now (this is the first it has happened, here), using an apostrophe causes the "find" bar, at the bottom of firefox, to pop up, and it prevents me from using contractions (and, one would expect, the genitive). wtf?! more importantly - how do i stop it? VERY ANNOYING. it often prevents me from cutting and pasting, as well.

    Just uninstall and reinstall your Firefox.

    It's easier than trying to troubleshoot.

    All the best.

    Cheers
