When I installed ver 23, my find function stopped working. The box would appear, I could type something I know is on the webpage and it would say nothing found. Today it updated to Ver 24 and the Find is still not working. I am using Win7 Thanks for any help - I use the Find all the time!

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

Also make sure that "Match case" on the Find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check mark.

It was one of the extension. I had an extension called 'Find All' Upon disabling it, Ctrl+F started working.

Thanks for the trouble shooting the link.
