The problem occurs if I use iGoogle or any other Google search entry panel with Firefox. No problem with Chrome. Any search results are obscured by a full screen grey overlay, with a tiny strip of the results visible on one side. When I press the back button the search result briefly appears before I am returned to the original search entry page. I am not that computer savvy but have looked through the problems suggestions etc and can't find anything relevant. Also reset my computer to an earlier date- no help. Any suggestions will be gratefully received. It's driving me nuts! Regards, Allan.
