Whenever I search google using the location bar OR the search bar, the results are always from google.com. But I live in Australia, and want the Australian google results. Google performs searches normally every other way.

How can I force Firefox to use the AU search?

Thanks.

Hey,

All that does is, is add the google AU to the search bar. I want the default google one to work and the awesome bar to work properly...

Try http://www.google.com.au/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com.au/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=

Note the space at the end, this is needed for the search to work.
