I am at Firefox 55.0.3, 32-bit.

My Vimperator version is 3.16.0

When I go to  "ABOUT:CONFIG" , I am not able to input data into the SEARCH  box. 

I disable all Vimperator keys-- by using  SHIFT+ESC.  That does not change the problem. 

I disable the Vimperator add-on, and restart Firefox.  That fixes the problem. 

It appears Vimperator is broken.

My vimperator_rc file is rather straightforward and is shown below.

Thank you.
