Since yesterday, Google web searches all come up blank unless I allow Google to set cookies (Firefox 10.0.7 on Gentoo). Google's privacy FAQ still says that Google search will work without cookies, and I find that Google Image, Books, and Scholar searches work just fine without cookies, so it doesn't appear to be a deliberate change of policy on Google's part. Anyone else experiencing similar symptoms?
Nope (FF 17.0.1)
But you can avoid google anyway if you use ixquick or startpage.

I am seeing those symptoms with Firefox 17.0.1 and I've seen other people on the web complaining about it.
Refreshing the page causes the results to display but doing that every time is a bit of a pain. It also happens with Iceape but not with Opera.
Strange withall.
