I've found what i believe might be the solution to this as it was posted
as a problem for other users who had installed xbindkeys...

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=195255

since the xbindkeys-config didn't work for me, I had to use gedit
~/.xbindkeysrc and I simply changed the line

# set directly keycode (here control + f with my keyboard)
# "xterm"
# c:41 + m:0x4

to control + g so now i have my search back, although i'm sure those
could be removed altogether for the same effect

Also, in case you cannot edit that file because it doesn't exist, you
can create it by using the following command:

xbindkeys --defaults > /home/alex/.xbindkeysrc


Anyway, hope this garble helps anybody else with a similar problem
