Bing as default search

Using bing as search for it the default url, however on the topic: config under "keyword.url", I set it to 'http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & sourceid = navclient & gfns = 1 & q =' (without the quotes). I have tried to reset it to the default value as well as various other values too, still uses bing. 'keyword.enabled' is set to true, I also tried to put it as false. I have not found anything in the list extensions/add-on, nor in the control panel. I think this problem raised after 32-bit vista did an automatic update last night.

(Quote from Dang Hoang Vu)

I have the same problem. If I type 1 keyword in the address bar, bing will come instead of google, which is irritating.

What I realized, it's somehow Microsoft updated my DNS siffix 'mshome.net'. I went to regedit and empty all the entry with "mshome.net" (find and manually set it to empty). After resetting my connection and flush the dns, everything is back to normal.

Hope that this can help everyone

You can empty your dns by opening "cmd" and type "ipconfig/flushdns" without the quotes

  • default search engine

    Try to make Bing my default... search by clicking the top right toolbar to display the available engines - Bing not here... click on "manage search engines" and then on "manage search engines" - brings me to a completely useless page with 5 modules on it!

    Went to
    "http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Search%20bar#w_while-visiting-a-website" (which reach you by clicking on "additional documentation" on the page mentioned above with 5 modules on it)-it
    tells you how you can add a motor while visiting - but the Add option does not come to the top when I'm on Bing.com!

    the example given is (for youtube)
    

    'To add the specific engine, open search engine list and select Add "YouTube Video Search".

    Mycroft is no help either because I don't think I want a plugin, but rather to make Bing the default search for everything (I hear it's pretty good and you want to see it in action!)

    Bottom line: FF doesn't seem like Bing! I know it's a MS product, but...

    Firefox does not come with a search engine Bing, you must add it. Search engines install via a 'plugin '.

    This page - http://www.bing.com/ - does not offer a search for installation plugin, that's why - http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Search%20bar#w_while-visiting-a-website - does not work to install a search plugin in Firefox.

  • No default search engine

    I installed freeware who hijacked my search. He removed all the default search engines and left only bing which was then my default. I managed to get off the list of bing and google added so I can search. It is not my preferred search tool. I can't find my favorite search, yahoo, as an add-on. The search engines of restoration tool is grayed out. I tried a reset Add-ons - nothing works. I use Windows 7. Should I reinstall firefox?

    Actually, I figured out where the folder for the default search engines was and replaced it with another copy. The oldfirefox file I had reset was empty.

    This used to be a piece of freeware confidence.

  • How can I choose the default search engine in the address window?

    You explain how to change the 'address bar' default search engine at the top right. I want to know how to change the search engine in the address at the top window to the left. Currently, if I type in an address not recognized, my ISP search engine will appear. I'd rather have the search engine of Google or Bing when I make a mistake of addressing.

    You can have an ISP that automatically redirects you to a search page if a DNS search fails.

    Who takes control of Firefox to search with the normal keyword like a Google, I'm lucky search.

    In this case, you will need to contact your ISP and ask for a DNS to opt-out of this feature.

    You can also check if there is a link on the search results page to go to your ISP and opt-out.

  • How can I change instead of change from Bing to Google search engine?

    Hello

    I want to ask you about customizing the search engine, instead of default search engine as Bing change the google search engine? either way, I'm using Firefox 8.0.

    Thank you

    When you get to the options, you should see bing in the menu. Highlight bing and type google.com and ok on the bottom then it should replace bing. If you can't find the Tools option go up and do a right click and menu check mark to display the toolbar.

  • Default search engine & homepage

    I think I have a bug.

    I have my default homepage set to MSN and Google search engine.  Since yesterday, whenever I open Safari, it opens on the Yahoo search engine.  Even when I do a search.  I checked the preferences of Safari and it still says MSN for the Home Page and of Google for my default search engine.

    Unfortunately I don't have time capsule implemented so I don't think I can go back in time and reset for a first date... or can I?

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if you do not delete rather manually the adware, launches MalwareBytes for Mac.

    MalwareBytes simplifies the process of removal of adware, but does not stop it or other malware from entering the computer. It should not be invoked to prevent future incidents; Instead, avoid downloading software from sources other than the Mac App Store or Developer Web sites.

  • If Google is my default search, can I go and change it if I want to do a search for GMaps; only the default is in the search drop-down list.

    If Google is my default search, can I go and change it if I want to do a search for GMaps; only the default is in the search drop-down list.
    So I have to change the default to Google Maps then back to Google to search for one.

    I have it! It's the topic: config "hiddenoneoffs" where the 3 elements of google, maps and mcafee have been included. There was no space between Google and maps. I put one in from Google Maps. She appeared in the first box-ff, but not sure about the search in the second time zone. I went back to the subject: one-offs. Safe search was shown with a space after Secure. I took out the space. Safe search arose in the 2nd single search box!
    Weird! This is contrary to how they show in the search parameters.
    Can I have messed that when Firefox has been reset all the search engines on an update, but I do not.
    Either incidentally, I tried to re-installation characteristic but the file comes down as a .dmg that I'm not familiar with and don't apparently is 8.0 to win because he couldn't open it. Thank you once again.

  • How can I select 'search yandex' as a default search in the night Navigator engine 44.0a1 x 64

    How can I select 'search yandex' as a default search in the night Navigator engine 44.0a1 x 64?

    Now, I see a lot of search engines but did not have "yandex".

    And how do I install elements of Yandex, when this may be available?

    If you are not able to install a search plugin for Yandex from the modules or Mycroft site, you can try to install one on the site (this works in Firefox 41, I have not tested in every night):

    Visit https://www.yandex.ru/ and notice that there is a green circle with a + on it on the search bar of Firefox. Click on that and then find the line on the menu drop down to add the site as a search engine.

    I have attached a screenshot, but since I can't actually read the language, I apologize if it's totally another thing.

    To make Yandex your default, you can use the link at the bottom of the Panel to the Options page search section.

    Success?

    Regarding Yandex elements, is the problem that Yandex has not presented the extension to be signed by the team of Add-ons? It's something that you might feel free to encourage them to do.
