Could you please specify what type of field you're attempting to search on? Reviewed the lines of code and at a glance do not see a problem. Please provide more details (see Help Us Help You within signature), thank you.

Please PM backend access and will take a look, am unable to duplicate on local or live test environments.

After further investigation and research the issue appears to be lack of UTF-8 support on a PHP level. Please contact your host on how to do this. We'll need to add a check to ensure regex is present. If your host can not enable UTF-8 please perform the following change.

IN: administrator/components/com_comprofiler/plugin.class.php
ON: Line 2464-2469
FROM:
[code:1]
global $_CB_framework;
if ( $_CB_framework->outputCharset() == 'UTF-8' ) {
$eachValues = preg_split( '/\p{Z}+/u', $value );
} else {
$eachValues = preg_split( '/\W+/', $value );
}

[/code:1]
TO:
[code:1] $eachValues = preg_split( '/\W+/', $value );

[/code:1]

Your host will most likely need to recompile PCRE with --enable-utf8 in order to provide this (they should do the same for unicode as well). Generally these are something a host should provide standard.
