Default Macro (Close-Up) Filters

Being interested in macro photography, I decided to pick up a set of close-up filters in order to explore the area before putting down the big money for a lens. However, I can't seem to figure out how to use them properly.

Once I screw the filter onto my lens, my lens seems to lose all ability to autofocus (probably due to the distortion created by the close-up lens). If I take the filter off, I'm able to focus perfectly fine.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
