Having just upgraded to FF4 I find that it will not search anything from the Mozilla home page. I can open bookmarked sites or use the search box in the toolbar.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?
A troubleshooting mode.
1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.
To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.

If not, see this:

Hi the-edmeister, yep even in SafeMode the Mozilla Homepage does not work. To overcome the problem I simply selected Google to be the homepage and that works fine. It appears to be purely a Mozilla based issue.
