I upgraded to Firefox 2 and now as soon as I put any letter in the History Sidebar search field, trying to find a visited link, all the URL's disappear! Nothing is found (null set) no matter if the search has an exact URL as listed (or parts thereof). Can this be fixed? I am on a MacBook Pro.

That's a feature, not a bug.
It only searches the page titles, not their URL or content.

hmm, found a mozilla bug report
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=338833
Unfortunately it was opened a year ago, since firefox3 is supposed to have a history replacement called "Places", I'm not optimistic we'll ever get a fix in firefox 2.x. Plus, considering Places was originally planned for completion in 2.0, who knows if it will ever get delivered.
