Hi Paddy,

I had the exact same problem .... turned out it was Norton Internet Security being the culprit !!!
So if you use Norton IS try to disable it and try google again (NOTE that you have to close any IE windows and open a new IE session again ...).

Btw - even though I spend a lot of $$ on Norton IS, I have scrapped it and use Kerio firewall together with AVG antivirus .... all free and working like a charm

Hope this helps,
Stone
