I haven't found a way to solve this, but it also happens, and has been for a while, on Wikipedia, Youtube, eBay and a lot of other sites. On some sites, the problem is caused by an auto-complete or suggestion function that tries to fill in suggestions while you are typing and when that is the case, turning off the auto-complete function in the site preferences fixes the problem, but I haven't been able to confirm whether or not this is the cause on the other sites I mentioned nor how to turn off such a function if it exists. So, if there is such a feature on Google Books, try turning it off. That is the only working solution I have found so far. I've taken to typing whatever I want to search in a notepad document and then cutting and pasting into the search field. The problem with that solution is that it is tedious and you have to remember to do it, I seem to forget 9 times out of 10 and end up with the usual frustrations of the bug.

Hi!

I've just installed the latest version of Firefox onto the Windows PC and thus far I'm very impressed with the speed and stability but I have one question.

I do a lot of searching using Google Books, when I type in a search term, the beta of Window-Eyes 7.2 jumps out of "Browse mode" whilst I'm typing for some reason, anyone had this problem and has anyone found a way to correct it?
