Hi,
If you mean the search engine, no problems here at all. Same for Google
Earth and GMail. Haven't tried other Google products, nor do I know of
any problems with them under Vista.

I've had trouble with searches in the Google Toolbar locking up IE7 under

Did you even try it?
Of course it's true. Someone told me the other day that Google is slowly
going out of business mostly because of the inability to work with Microsoft
products. I was in a parking lot and the guy who was getting out of his car
was telling the girl next to him this information and I was lucky enough to
hear it all.

It is more likely to be IE7 than Vista per se.
