Dear Support,

I would like to know how to solve an annoying problem with the address entry bar. Every time I type wrong or incomplete address it will load Yandex page with suggestions. How can I change this so it will take me to Google suggestions? I have Google search bar set by default to Google but I can not find in settings how to do the same with the address bar. Please help.

Firefox 6.0.2 Windows XP home

Many thanks.

Alex

You can open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for yandex via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.
You can reset all yandex related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.

Thank you for your support cor-el. I have found 3 values with yandex link in them and left them blank however, I still get on the yandex page. I've run the Filter again and there are no more yandex found but it still does the same thing.

Regards,
