Works for me as well...  Reporter, do you still see this problem in safe mode?

I was at friends place today and tried it with his computer and it performed as expected. His OS was mac. I've tried it with both of my machines one is Windows vista and another is Windows xp. It could also possibly be because of going to google.fi

Ah, I thought you added the keyword to the search engine in the search field on the top right. I'm wondering why you add a new entry for Google, while you already have one.
