I don't know how much more I can add...However, when I type in the Norton Safe Search box up to the search button in Norton Safe Search I can continue to type but I can't see what is being typed because it doesn't allow me to see the trailing end of what I'm typing. This along with the fact that the letters and words don't always automatically advance a space, they group together as I'm typing and I have to stop, provide a space and continue once again. This only happens in Mozilla Firefox, I'm using Firefox 3.6.19. This doesn't happen in the Norton Safe Search Box in Internet Explorer

Maybe another extension that you have installed is causing that problem with that Norton Safe Search add-on.

Disable all other extensions and see if Norton works correctly.
I so, start enabling extensions one at a time until you find the culprit.

If not, create a new Profile and verify that Norton is the only extension that appears in the new Profile and see if it works correctly.

If not, the problem is with the Norton add-on.
