Since I upgraded to 4.0.1 the within page search (Ctrl F) has stopped working properly. Now it will find some occurrences of a word, but miss the majority.

Make sure that the Match Case box on the Find Bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check-mark.

Many thanks. I've not noticed that and I presume it was always switched off before.
