I don't know if anyone else has this problem and I didn't see a complaint thread anywhere.  I find using the search option up on the top bar works better then the other one that has a list of items for your search, however, I can't always use the one on the bar (which is the only search option you get when on an artists page or on an items page) due to the advertisements getting in the way, so to do a search I have to go back to the sections main page.  This has happened numerous times and usually lasts for days or even weeks.  I do not get good search results with the main search and prefer to use the one up in the right corner.  Oh if OS has anything to do with view, I am on Vista.
