FireFox Address Bar Search Engine

[OliverE]

Every installed some software and its annoyingly installed Ask search engine toolbars, and when you use to type something into the address bar and hit search it used to search with google and not something else?

Well removing the toolbars is easy enough, but changing which search engine the address bar searches with, is slightly harder.


Steps

• Firstly, in firefox, type about:config into the address bar and hit search.
• Firefox will say "Here be Dragons", just hit "I will be carefull".
• Next into the search bar in that new window, search for "Keyword.Url"
• You should be left with just one result. Right click it and hit modify.
• Into the text box, type the following to get the search engine you want.
