Why is searching so broken?
Flock often doesn't complete a search. I was going to overlook this at first, but it does it often enough to be extremely annoying. When I try to search, either using the search bar in the upper right hand corner, or on the actual website (not just google, but also yahoo, yelp.com or any other searchable website), it often does nothing but 'think.' About 5% of the time, it eventually goes to a blank screen, but I now refresh it if it's not being quick about it. Usually, refreshing lets me search immediately, but occasionally it gets angry and causes my browser to crash..
I’m annoyed.

Inappropriate?Hi Aaron,
That seems strange that searching is failing on the service site. Does this problem happen on other browsers too?
Regardless, if you have any extensions or addons, could you please disable them all and then try to make a few searches, please? If this solves the issue, re-enable your extensions one by one to isolate the culprit.
Thanks, and let me know how all of this works.

Inappropriate?The only extension I have is speed dial. I added it relatively recently, so I doubt it's causing the problem.
I've actually found out that it does this hanging thing on just about any page, actually. i guess it's just more frequent when I'm searching (or I do that a lot)....
I’m irritated.

Inappropriate?Aaron,
Alright, well then give our Tune-Up Page a try. This may speed up your browser, and reduce the lagtime on your browsing activities.
Hope this helps!
