[Googlebar] Googlebar: feedback from Buck Martin

I've been having a problem with the Googlebar for about 4-6 weeks. If I enter terms in the query area, then the resulting search produces a Mozilla page that loads very slowly, then ends in a blank page with "done" showing in the lower left part of the screen. A url of the form http://labs.google.com/cgi-bin/keys?q=mozilla will show in the brower's location field. Entering the same URL in Mozilla's location field from a new session without use of the Googlebar produces the same result, so apparently the URL generated by Googlebar is bad.

The problem began under Moz. 1.6 and has persisted through installation of 1.7 and reinstallation of the Googlebar. The behavior is consistent, without exception. My machine is running WinXP Pro.

Any ideas?
