Joel,
I use Google as my search engine as well. I just tried it and it appeared
to work the same for me too. Then when I down arrowed I ran into, "Screen
readers if you want to turn off instant..." I then down arrowed without
clicking on that link until I ran into "search" and clicked it on. It
worked using the down arrow and not using the tab key.
I will be waiting for a response from your dilemma as well as Google is my
search engine.
I don't like change and still use XP, internet 7, word 203, and the only
changes I make are the automatic updates by microsoft. I am looking into a
new computer and lap top and dread having to use all this new updated
programs I suppose I will have pre-installed on my new ones.
I can only suggest using the down arrow keys until someone else has a better
explanation.
