I dont like firefox 4 can I go back to the old one
I used to be able to type in the address bar where I wanted to go for example... Say I wanted to bring up a website for "Union Mo theater" I would type in the address bar "Union Mo theater" and it would automatically take me to http://www.great8cinema.com now it brings up a google search with out letting me go where I want to go

The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
- 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, double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
