I ran into a curious problem trying to use Google search. Found a solution. But not certain what caused the problem. When I tried to refine a search (modify text in their search text box) the browser would not refresh on hitting return or their search button. I had to enter the updated search in the Firefox search control (at top right). The problem did not occur when using IE 8 or Google Chrome. And I did not have the submit problems with other web sites. I tried re-installing Firefox while maintaining bookmarks, passwords, history, but that did not fix the problem. However when I completely uninstalled Firefox and then performed a clean installed the Google search page worked as expected. It is possible that I had some malware, specifically the Flash exploit, as Firefox is my primary browser. I am not certain and only guessing Figure I should pass on my experience in case others run into the same problem. My solution was: 0. Make certain have all login/passwords for websites. 1. Export my bookmarks to the JSON file. 2. Uninstall Firefox with "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" checked. 3. Re-install Firefox using fresh download. 4. Import bookmarks 5. Restore Add-ons. 6. Download Flash 10.1 and install (NOTE: Checked for but no additional add-on following this install) Then Google search pages worked as expected.
