Hi, I have an issue when i goto google.com and try search it always put text in address bar and never in the actual search field. I have tried to change it but can not figure out how. It is very annoying as I have a whole screen for text but it wants to only use the address bar..... Im at the point where I am considering changing browsers due to I can not get use to it and really dislike it.
