Keyword Location Search Removed
In FireFox if I used to type BBC in the address bar it would take me to the BBC Homepage. Now however it takes me to a google search.
This was actually one of the main things I used to enjoy about FireFox and if this is yet another thing that has been removed for "improvements" like the status bar was (although its back with an addon) then I guess I will have to either go back to IE or try another browser.
If however there is something I need to do to get it return I will happily do it.
Thank you.

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
- Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
- Google "Browse by Name": http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=

I should have added that I am using the BBC address as an example.

Thank you by entering www.google.co.uk as the value for keyword.URL this seems to be working again.
