The search location is not working for google.com.sg. However it works on about:home and the main google.com.

The URL it shows on the non working search is as such "http://www.google.com.sg/#hl=en&source=hp&biw=1280&bih=670&q=google&oq=google&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=f&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=4179l5340l0l6l6l0l3l3l0l184l403l1.2&fp=7adf4517400dff97."

Tried the modifying about:config Keyword to "http://www.google.com/search?q=" but still not did not work.

Chosen solution

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).
