When I enter a search in the Mozilla Start Page and press enter the browser does nothing. It doesn't bring in any search results. I use Windows Vista pack2
I just upgraded Firefox for windows to version 21.0 After upgrading, when I enter a subject to search in the search box (in the middle of the page) of the Mozilla Start page and press enter nothing happens. It doesn't bring in any search results. The only way to navigate using the browser is to enter the website name in the address box at the top of the page and press enter. I'm running the browser for Windows Vista - 32 bits. I tried re-installing firefox and I got the same result. I also tried re-booting after installation and it still behaves the same way.
Please help,
Thank you,
Hektor

Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)
- You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
- Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.
Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article for that.
To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.
Thank you.
Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
