How can i remove "search-results.com" from my adress bar in Mozilla Firefox version 10.0.2 ?
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 !!!

Check the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page.
Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox 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).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

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.
