Typing somethng in address bar brings up bing search how do I change that?
I usually type anything in address bar such as dodge viper and under Google search I can find images but lately this has been changing to bing search and I do not like bing so was wondering how to change that?

To revert to the default Google search:
- Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
- Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
- Locate the preference keyword.URL, right-click on it and choose Reset
This will make Firefox show a Google search result page when searching from the address bar. You can change it to the Firefox 3.6 behavior of going straight to the site if there is a clear match by double-clicking on keyword.URL and changing it to the link shown below:
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
If it still goes to Bing after changing keyword.URL, there will be an add-on that is causing this behavior. To track down what one you can use the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
