Why can I no longer just type the name of a site in the address bar and be taken straight to it?
Now instead of being taken to the site I get taken to a google search result. It was such a convenient feature...is there something I need to change settings wise?

-> Click OK on Options window
-> click the Favicon (small drop down menu icon) on Firefox SearchBar (its position is on the Right side of the Address Bar) -> click "Manage Search Engines" -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click Remove -> click OK
