How to rid Bing from searching when I type in the main navigation bar?
Question why when I search in the URL line (for example I just typed "speed dial" , the search is handled by Bing, not Firefox, and the results are displayed in Bing. If I search in the box to the right, the search is done by Google, but not the case if I type in the large navigation bar? ? edit

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
- Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
- Google "Browse by Name": http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
