Google page will not search anymore unless I trick it into working for me !! If I enter search term it simply won't budge, but sometimes if I click on images then back to regular it will pop up the results. That doesn't always work though. Another way it works perfectly is in private browsing mode. Google is refusing to work with Firefox and I have updated Firefox twice now. Other sites work fine. I also have complaint google forced me into a google account when I made a youtube account and this problem may be associated as it happened same week. Also google signs me into google whenever i sign into youtube, that really pisses me off as i had no idea it was doing that until I noticed I was "signed in" on a google page I opened. Anyone could have accessed my google/youtube acct. and password while I was unaware of this from that computer. Now I open google and sign out there after i sign in to youtube !!! What a piece of work google is for doing this crap.
