    Hi I have an Acer Aspire5100. I am having a problem typing in the internet explorer search bar. I can type in the address bar or a word doc. but not the search bar. i.e. if I want to login to my email account the typing seems to be locked. Can anyone advise? Do you think this might be a virus? I am using Nortan antivirus.

    thanks

    When did this start happening?

    If it is recent and you think an update may be the problem, you could try a system restore.

    ewj1978's suggestion seems likely to address your problem, but for a system restore:

    Start/All programs/Accessories/System Tools/System restore

    It's fairly easy to follow and you can reverse it if it doesn't work.

    Have you tried using a different browser?
