The search box is built into your theme, goto administer -> themes
click on configure next to the theme in use
under Toggle display check the checkbox for search box

to have the search box show to anon user (users who aren't logged in). you must give the anon user role permission to seach in administer -> access control

The Search box does not find a word that mach my site why

probably because you have not indexed your site and run cron.php

goto administer -> search settings
click the Re-index button
and run cron.php @ yoursite.com/cron.php

you should set cron up to run automatically using your hosts panel.

you will have to check your hosts documentation and knowledge base. Not every host does this the same way. Giving you a step by step can only confuse things more if your host panel isn't set up like my own.

you should not give administer search permission to anon users.

search content: allows the search box to show and allows anon users to use the search box
use advanced search: does not have to be set, this only allows anon users to use the advanced search at yoursite.com/search

something strange aper when i click on the Search box

I don't know what that something strange is. I can't see your site.

provide a link or try to explain a little better about what "that something strange appearing" is.
it may also help to know what theme you are using so that someone can try to inspect that theme, or install that theme to see what it is you see if you can't provide a link to your site.
