My searching UK only sites facility has disappeared, I have reinstalled Firefox but that does not bring it back-what do I do now! Previously, you advised me to use firefox.co.uk but this doesn't work either. I have recently downloaded Firefox on by oldbusiness computer and the UK search came with the download - no problem. What else can I do?

Firefox uses branded Google pages for its default home page, and Google have changed how searching for UK only sites works. To get UK only pages, you can conduct the search using http://www.google.co.uk and then to narrow it down for sites from the UK click the "Pages from the UK" link in the left hand column.

For a time the option button for UK only was available on http://www.google.co.uk/firefox but that has now been removed.
