BING keeps changing my address bar search. Is there any way to LOCK Google as the default? "about:config" only works temporarily until BING comes back. I want a PERMANENT block of BING!

Pretty much as I stated. I use about:config to change BING as the default back go Google. This works fine. But 3 or 4 days later, BING comes right back. It's done this now at least half a dozen times, and there's no end in sight. Is there any PERMANENT solution to either totally block BING, or lock in Google? If not, is there a one click solution to making Google the default again?

I would GREATLY appreciate any help with this!! I hate BING, and I'm growing weary of having to go through the about:config process.

Just found this and it worked!!!!!!!!! It's very easy, open two tabs so you can switch back and forth while doing it.

Hope it helps you!

@rubberducky

The value of keyword.URL in your system details links to the bing.com site.
You can reset that pref to the default value on the about:config page via the right-click context menu (Reset)

I appreciate your response, but I've already gone through that routine several times. I actually had to do it TWICE today alone. It gets really old. I want Bing blocked completely. I'm tired of it changing my default search, especially without my permission.
