When I try to Change my Homepage from Bearshare.com to Bing.com, It doesn't happen. I have tried to change it via Options and by dragging the Bing icon to the Home icon. What's going on??
Search.Bearshare.com is currently my homepage. I want it to be Bing.com but after I change it, Search.Bearshare.com still comes up. I even deleted the Bearshare program (I didn't like it anyway) but the Search.Bearshare.com page still shows up when I open Firefox.

If the steps mentioned there don't have any effect, please do the following:
- In the location bar, type about:config and hit Enter.
- In the filter at the top, type: keyword.URL
- Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
To reset your home page, do the following.
- Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
- Click the orange Firefox button and go to Options | Options | General (Firefox 4.0.x and above).
- Go to Tools | Options | General (Previous version of Firefox).
- Make sure it says "Show My Homepage" in the first dropdown menu.
- Click the button called "Use Current Pages" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.
