Hi,

After several trouble free years of Mozilla after recent updates I'm abandoning it - default search is US based not UK based.

I've cleaned out cookies, re-loaded from the UK site, checked I'm on en-GB, messed about with useragent.locale, fiddled around in preferences all to no avail, even a clean UK install defaults to a US search.

I've given up beta testing your "upgrades", uninstalled your product and gone back to the world of big business.


Regards

djr

hi, it depends on google which country search they're directing you to. if you want to conduct a specific search on google.co.uk, you could install a search plugin for that: http://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.html?name=google&category=12&country=GB&language=en
