Search Bar
My search bar has been changed to Bing. By search bar, I refer to the URL one. Whenever I search there, it does a bing search. Which is awful. How can I change it back to google search?

Check the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page.
Thanks, but that doesn't tell me how to change it back to firefox/google.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search#Location_Bar_search_.28external_-_search_engine.29
Set the pref keyword.URL to one of these:
- http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
- http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
The first link makes Firefox do a Google Lucky search and the second link will always open a Google page with search results.
