In Firefox type about:config in the address bar and press ENTER.

Search for Keyword

Locate and double-click the entry for keyword.URL

Modify it by add the below set of values :

Yahoo: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=

Ask: http://www.ask.com/web?q=

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

Google: http://www.google.com/search?&q=

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. In the filter box type keyword to bring up a small number of preferences
  4. Right-click on the preference keyword.URL and choose Reset to set it back to Google

For more information see Location bar search. If the Bing bar has also been installed, this article can help - Removing the Search Helper Extension and Bing Bar

I tried this, but the reset button is grey and won't allow me to click. In my search bar I don't have an engine

more options

do as TonyE said. But when you see that damn grey reset button, juste double click on the field under value (or right click it and choose modify). A box should pop out, in which you can copy/paste the following "http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=". That should do it.

Thank you, Tony! I too had this problem with that annoying Bing search bar. Your instructions were very clear and the Bing Bar is now gone.I had looked in the list of installed programs for "Bing" but it was actually labeled as "Search ..(something)". The bing people are sneaky. I've noticed they covertly try to add their bing bar in other downloaded programs, even the paid ones.

thanks again, laura

Resetting my default search engine to Bing with it's advertisements has resulted in me now using Google Chrome as my preferred web browser. I am really tired of ads and some company deciding what is best for me. Goodbye.

I'm an old 62-year old lady, in the graphics industry and here's how I REMOVED BING! HATE BING!

I have a Mac, so here goes…hope this helps everyone Open Firefox Right mouse click "Firefox" on the Firefox Tool Bar on far left Click "Preferences" Click "General" Click "Restore to Default"

The, stay in the same "Preference" area where other tabs are… Click the "Advanced" Tab Check "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on the start up" Click the "Check now" button

The, stay in the same "Preference" area again where other tabs are… Click the "Privacy" Tab Then click the words that say "clear your recent history" or "remove individual cookies". Now, this last part may have nothing to do with Bing…but I did it anyway. I HATE BING!!!!

Firefox best deal with this Bing Issue…I am going to post this on Facebook and our entire company and my e-marketing clients ASAP! Hope this helps!

Have just fixed this problem! Assuming you have previously had Mozilla Firefox as your default search engine, start from the main toolbar, go Tools > Options > General. You will see the address of the 'Home Page' specified in about the second line. If this has been taken over by the flashy and vulgar Bing bar, all you now have to do is select 'Restore to Default', and you will get your awesome Firefox back.

open general google rather that first page: just by pasting the following

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

I just did what gauravrai said and was able to get the little arrow next to Bing to come back on. I clicked on the arrow and chose Google. I did not have that arrow before. Thanks a lot!
