When I type a word on the address bar and enter, the word appears to be searched with "search-results.com" but I would like to change it to Google search instead. How do I do this as I couldn't find any options to customize this in 10.0.2 Very annoying !!!

Chosen solution

Check the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page.



Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

ok, thanks. I fixed the problem. I didn't understand that first that I had to type "about:config" in the address bar to get to this hidden menu. Now I know and I've fixed my problem I have replaced all 3 links to this other search engine to the one I wanted : http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&site=&source=hp&q=

Now the search results come up in Google not in this other annoying search engine.
