When I try to change the search words firefox does not accept them...e.g. I type in search for "Joe Bloggs" then try to change the search to search for "Joe Bloggs" Football it tries to connect briefly and then shows the results for the previous search "Joe Bloggs" and the added words "Football" no longer appear in the search bar.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
