Its happening to me now as well - wasn't yesterday and it only brakes when i need to look for something so blame my bad luck

It happens to me about every once or twice a month but then the STEX is pretty demanding on ST resources so no wonder it doesn't work osmetimes.

Can it stop?

Just to see what would happen, I tried a search with the key "Rocket Launcher".  Worked just fine thanks.  Don't know if it is fixed or not, but I don't see it broken.

a refresh of the page always helps.

Maybe its all in the way you hold your mouth.

Hmm, it was broken yesterday or so indeed, but now it seems to be working for me again as well.

Yep. It'll probably be back in a day or two..... It's always had these periodic malfunctions
