A random toolbar somehow managed to install itself in my firefox, and change the default search engine (for when you use the address bar) to its own. I uninstalled the toolbar and set the default search engine back to google, but now a feature of firefox isn't working anymore: before, if I typed part of an easily recognizable URL, it would redirect there. so if I typed "google" on the address bar, it would redirect me to "google.com". now it just show the google search results for the word "google". same for any other word.

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".

also. I used this method to make the search default go back to google: http://www.groovypost.com/howto/how-to/change-firefox-4-address-bar-search-engine-provider/

and before I changed it, when it was still the toolbar's random search engine, it wasn't working either. basically not working since the damn thing installed itself... I thought unninstalling it would work and it didn't, I thought reverting back to google as the default search engine would work and it didn't...

I unninstalled and reinstalled firefox too, but without deleting my personal preferences and stuff because I didn't want to lose them. it didn't work, obviously... didn't think it would =/
