After I upgraded to Firefox 4, the awesome bar is just doing a Google search instead of taking me directly to the website it thinks is best. Help?

For example, I type in "Gmail" and it just brings up a google search for gmail, when in Firefox 3 it would take me directly to the website.

I have tried the about:config trick and adding the "I'm feeling Lucky" url but that didn't work. What's going on?

Several clients and I think this is great that you've changed the default. Going directly to a site has significant consequences for some businesses, especially for those whose competitors may have the geographic keyword for their location in their name, completely circumventing all the search optimization of everyone else on first page of Google. Readers, please leave your browsers set as they are so you see choices. (For those that think Firefox was always like this, it was not, only a few years ago it started going directly to a website. Their guess is not always best.)
