After installing Firefox 4, my Google Search box is not click-able anymore. None of the suggestions it offers or the searches that I have typed in the past can be clicked on. I have to retype each and every time I want to search for something. I tried reinstalling a fresh copy of the Google toolbar and that did not fix my problem.

Many users have reported that problem. The Google Toolbar is b0rked in Firefox 4.0, it needs to be fixed by the developer of that add-on.

I am having the same problem. It is very frustrating. Cannot select any of the search suggestions. When I do nothing happens. Is this a Google or Firefox problem.

I decided to downgrade back to Firefox 3.616 until this problem is corrected. It was so time consuming with the typing, plus I wasted more time trying to click on the suggestions out of habit. Thankfully, after the downgrade all is working as it did before.
