address bar seaches don't work

[Falcon]

whenever I type keywords in the address bar for a simple
seach instead of going to the results page it give me an
"The page cannot be displayed" error message and the
address bar displays "http://1/". I can type URLs in and
they come up but not the address bar search.
Does anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
