When I 'Tab Groups,' the search function immediately pops up (and it won't go away) every time, preventing me from accessing my grouped tabs. How can I prevent this from happening?

Using Firefox 5.0 with Windows 7 on a laptop, whenever I click the 'Group Tabs' icon to the right of my tabs, the search function immediately comes up over my grouped tabs, preventing me from using any of them. When the search function comes up, the screen goes semi-dark and the search bar appears - any text I type at this time is entered into the search bar (the search function works normally). If I click any section of the screen at this time the search function disappears and the screen regains color - but only for a fraction of a second, and then the search function comes up again, along with the darkened screen. Hitting 'escape' or 'backspace' produces the same effect. Is there any way to disable this unceasing search function?

This is something you need to report via the Feedback button (or use the link on the Help menu).

Firefox 5.0 is still in BETA and not slated for release until June 21.

Reinstall the full version of the current release which is v4.0.1, download link at the top of this forum.

Indeed, I did report it via Feedback - but BETA or no, I was wondering if any solutions exist.

Maybe upgrade to Aurora? http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/channel/
