I want net neutrality. Google must go. I loaded Firefox on windows-xp and the Google search bar still comes up within Firefox. How do I GET RID OF GOOGLE??

I have used Firefox on Linux also on the same machine.

Simply right-click near where that search bar is, then click "customize." Drag the Google toolbar into the customize box that appears, and presto! It's gone.

The Search bar is a not a Google search bar but rather it just had Google selected as the search engine at time.
