    One would think, that considering who big google is, and how many people this affects, that this problem would have been resolved by now.

    Well, based on what Thrash posted, I checked all the SSLs on the Advanced tab, so I can Google. It seems to work. I think I should be OK until Google gets this sorted out. (Famous last words)
    It worked one time then back to no search results.

    I'm surprised you don't read about this issue when you do a search with Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc...

    Your choice enabling ssl's I wouldn't
    Just bookmark the non ssl url I posted
    Or when on the other link just click on the new google logo on the top left
    Then use that search box that comes up that's how I saw the difference in addresses

    That's because of the redirect it is an issue for google to fix that's why enabling ssl's is a bad idea

    SSL is the problem then? I've been messing about and Google Search Box works fine in all browsers for me. I use:

    Code:
    https://encrypted.google.com
    Interestingly if I switch Secret Agent into Stealth Mode I get various results as it rotates User Agent and Request Headers.

    I get any of the following each time I open a new tab and search:

    Google instant search only with no "Google Search" button

    No Google instant search and a "Google Search" button

    Google search as I type with results opening instantly and no "Google Search" button

    SSL checks out okay:

    With default settings Google Search works as normal.

    This is a traffic capture from IE11 64bit with all default settings applied. (Reset to default)

    It seems that Google is encrypting searches by default. If I type

    Code:
    google.com
    here's what happens:

    I am successfully able to search by doing as previously suggested, clicking google icon in upper left corner and entering search term, then hitting return.

    Update: Never mind, this didn't work just now. Off to bing. :{

    Yep for an odd reason that works if the page shows the logo on the top left
    It them redirects to an .en address :/

    The redirects are pretty weird ?
