My search box wont allow me to search for anything -- it just started doing it. I just got upgraded to firefox 9. Neither Bing, Google, or Yahoo work.

Plus, I've noticed that filling in data while on the web, what I write takes forever and words and letters get jumbled and I have to go back and correct the words that didn't completely write. Even writing this is driving me crazy.

Only happens while on web-related writing.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Jumbled text can be caused by a Java process running on the page with the text area you are typing in. You have Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_24 for Mozilla browsers installed, the current version is _30 - update Java.

As far as the problem with the Search Bar, both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Hello, the Java situation was resolved [thank you], but the non-functioning search continues.

When I enter data into the search box that exists (I presume it's Firefox's) it will show the suggested or related search choices, but when you select one and click on search, it opens a page but it is blank.

It's bizarre. Search doesn't even work when I am on Yahoo's, Google's, or Bing's websites directly, not just from the search bar.

I did disable Yahoo's toolbar. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
