Haven't noticed the search has changed, but I don't like what they've done with the hints - it's a right rigmaroll to bet back to the hints list!!

You used to be able to go back to the list easily, but now you can't. I use them as sometimes they come up with something relevant I hadn't thourght of, although mostly it's a load of r*****h.
