When you type something in the search box, you will get presented with a list of possible choices, but Google will not actually perform the search when you press "Enter" or click "Google Search". IE 6 still appears to work fine, as does Firefox 3.6. The problem just seems to be with the latest version of Firefox. It also seems to be intermittent. Sometimes it actually does work..

Although not related to your question you have outdated ShockWave Flash Player go ahead and update your flash player by going to www.get.adobe.com/flashplayer

As for your problem, One of your add-ons might be the culprit too. Try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and possibly Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
