When I try to do a search nothing happens or I cannot even type in the field. Previously I had no problems before this beta test! The screen has mozilla as the first bar line, yahoo as the second bar line and google or yahoo as the big screen search with a blank space to type in but nothing happens after that. I'm not a wiz but something is certainly not working. I have a laptop with windows vista and don't know what to do! I can access yahoo mail and facebook without any problem. Should I just uninstall this beta test of mozilla? And how?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
