While writing "search keyword" in the Search box on the Firefox version
3.6.1, the text written is automatically gets selected.

Hence, as the user tries to write further, the older text written gets
lost.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start the Mozilla Firefox
2.Try writing into the google search box some keywords.

Actual Results:  
The text gets selected writing automatically. hence, if continued writing the older text is lost.

Expected Results:  
The text should not be selected automatically

Note: I have this problem without ANY extensions other than the default Ubuntu installed ones.
I have noticed something about this bug. When this happens the usual Google search terms that normally appear do not, and it is only when changing tabs or closing firefox and restarting it that it fixes itself, but when it does, the search terms appear again, so this may have something to do with that?
