Since the last update, Google Tool Bar Auto Search when you select from the search by drop down list does not work. Why?

After the last Firefox update I have found that I have to type in my required search in full in the Google Tool bar even if I click on a previously searched item appearing in my drop down list. This problem only started after the last update as this feature worked properly before.

Known problem with the Google Toolbar extension.

The last item there:
When you attempt a search from the search box on your Toolbar it may not allow you to select items from your drop-down list of web history or search suggestions.

As a workaround, try using your keyboard to navigate the drop-down list to select your web history or search suggestions.
