Firefox 4: I am from Sweden but my company has there servers in Finland. So if i do a quick search with Google in the search bar it automatically switch to Google.fi, i want it to do the search in Google.se. I have searched the web for an answer on how to change that but cant find one.

It is not possible to add Google.se (or any local Google site) as default anywhere... Help!

What to do?

This does not help. The problem is that my computer is in Sweden and i work in Sweden but my company is from Finland. So my IP address is from Finland. Every time i use the "quick search bar" it goes to google.fi. I need to add google.se in my "quick search bar" or make it redirect to my countries Google site.

How do i do this?
