When using Google Chrome (6.0.472.63) the "Google Instant" feature is seemingly unavailable; although it was working a week or so ago, I'm unsure when it actually stopped.

The Google Instant feature does work for me in Firefox (3.6.10) and Safari (5.0.2).

Has anyone else had an issue like this or know how to get it working in Chrome?

Update

Oddly enough, going to www.google.ca has google instant working for me (I am in Canada), does anyone know why it won't work on www.google.com?

Are you using the Omnibar here or the website? If the latter, this will be migrated – random♦ Oct 17 '10 at 3:24

Try clearing your cache first. And I'm not sure whether signing into a google account makes a difference, but try that too. – Vervious Oct 25 '10 at 1:37

Check that JavaScript is enabled in Chrome. For this you can go to Options > Under the Hood > Content Settings > JavaScript.

If JavaScript happens to be disabled Instant Search won't work.

JavaScript was already enabled. – Nick Oct 24 '10 at 23:59
