When typing in the Google search space, the letters do not appear as I type them. Only the results display below a blank search space. This does not happen in IE.
Frustrating as I cannot see any typos I am making.

Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.

On the Google home page in the space where you type in words you want to 'google'.
