   I don't have a separate search bar, that takes too much "real estate" on   
   that line.   
   I type whatever I'm looking for into the address bar, wait a second and   
   it offers me "Search DuckDuckGo for xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", I position to   
   that, Enter and off it goes.  It does come back with "waiting for   
   improving duckduckgo.com" but only after having listed the results of my   
   search.   
   After that, I'll type any new search into the duckduckgo line at the top   
   and hit Enter BUT NOT BY CLICKING ON THE MAGNIFYING GLASS.   
      
   Works for me.
