Address and search bar do 'google custom search'. This is pretty much useless. I CANNOT get rid of it. I want NORMAL GOOGLE. About:config settings do NOT change this.

Or just install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ to reset your search prefs back to google.

Puppydangerous, what is your version of Firefox? (We need to know this so we can give you the right solution.)

Starting with Firefox 23 the keyword.URL pref is no longer supported and it is no longer possible to specify the search engine for the location bar that way.

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

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.
