When I'm searching for something on Ebay, Amazon, AT, etc I always get the "This page cannot be displayed" when I hit the back button. It happens all the time when I search for things, it's really annoying because i have to go alllll the way back and search again.

I don't have this problem in Firefox, just in IE. Why is that? What's causing it?

Didn't work, thanks for the suggestion though

I think it's a security issue with IE. I notice this a lot too.

It's annoying as hell

well a workaround would be to just shift+click any of the search results, so you'll always have the search results open in the original window.
