I use Mozilla FireFox as my browser. On my desktop PC with operating system of Windows XP SP-2 on separate logins I need to use Google search in either US English or UK English.

Do I need to install both versions of FireFox with related addons or would it suffice to change my Google search from https://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en to https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?hl=en or to (for India) https://www.google.co.in/webhp?hl=en

You can install additional Google search engines from the Mycroft Project website.

The search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar is used for searches via the location bar and on the built-in about:home page.

You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.
