In the bar where you type in the webpage, you can type in a word and it's supposed to redirect you to a search engine with that word put into the search engine, and I'm trying to make it Google, but it keeps going to this website called Babylon (it's happened so many times and I'm really starting to get ticked off) and I can't seem to find a way to make it become Google. I need help. And no, not the search bar at the top right corner of the browser, the actual bar where you type in the actual website. Please don't give me bad answers that won't help me. Thanks.

Hi MetalChocoboGirl,

If the address bar search has been changed, you might want to take a look at Location bar search.

If that doesn't work you should look at the article How to fix preferences that won't save. There is also a lot of stuff about Babylon specifically in the Search and Home page troubleshooting section.

Hopefully this helps!
