Suddenly, I cannot used the blue/white "Search Box" to access Websites already visited. How do I get the "Search Box" to allow me to access Websites I've already visited that shows up in the dropbox?

Which search box do you mean?

  • searching via the location bar (pref: keyword.URL)
  • search bar on the Navigation Toolbar
  • search bar on the about:home page (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename)
  • other search bar (e.g. added by extension)

Is this the drop down list of the location bar?
