When I try to enter something into the search box on google, the box turns blue and it does not show what I am typing. It goes to whatever pops up for the first letter typed, then the second letter but never shows what i actually typed. This just started happening with firefox.

See:

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