Someone at @firefox thought that *BLOCKING* the [ENTER] key from confirming the 'SAVE' of a content is a good idea ... think again - its garbage/bullshit - bring it back before it backfires more ...

Works on my machine. Is this about the file browser dialog? That depends on your OS or DE.

Those generally are there because someone has figured out a way to atack your computer. Like, get someome playing a Web game and slamming enter and then pop up a dialog right in the middle so that you inadvertently confirm doing something unpleasant to your computer. The secure setting is probably the right default for most users.

Go to about:config (type into address bar) and set security.dialog_enable_delay setting to 0.

Note: disabling this delay may in theory open you to some pretty non-standard security attacks described in this article (as Otiel pointed out), but I wouldn't lose sleep about it.

Thank you, this is exactly what this setting is there for.

There is usually a time delay before the button is enabled. At least on Windows.
