Edrie, I was having better luck with not clicking on the "find" pop-up at all to make it go away, I'd just used the "back" to return to the search engine. It seems to be semi-consistent, but varies with the number of times you have to input the search word before it remembers. And none of that makes sense--computers are more predictable than that, usually. I'm not quite sure what makes it tick. But, I liked Netscape's "find" better.

If you want it to remember hit the Cancel button instead of the upper one. Can't remember what its called.
