My search bar has been changed to Bing. By search bar, I refer to the URL one. Whenever I search there, it does a bing search. Which is awful. How can I change it back to google search?

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search#Location_Bar_search_.28external_-_search_engine.29

Set the pref keyword.URL to one of these:

The first link makes Firefox do a Google Lucky search and the second link will always open a Google page with search results.
