  Assuming GLODA is off (which is a good thing) ... you have to click
the magnifying glass and choose Subject or From (or whatever) .. it
sometimes starts up on global even if its off - (very stubborn that gloda).

  See if that helps.

  Also confirm that advanced search (control-shift-f or
edit->find->search_messages) works ok.
