We are sure that after reading our comprehensive guide to OpenDNS, most of you have probably switched to using it as your DNS server.
It was a great service except for one problem. By default, Firefox’s address bar is connected to Google search and so you can directly type a query and press enter to get search results in Google. Now, OpenDNS will automatically replace this with its own search engine. I only know when conducting a search in my Firefox address bar.
Returning to Google as your default engine is not difficult. Here is a step by step guide to do it in Firefox.
1. Type about:config in the Firefox address bar and press enter.
2. Click “I promise, I will be careful!” button.
3 types keyword.URL in the filter box. Right click on the result and select “Modify”.
4. In the box, enter the following value.
http://www.google.com/search?q=
5. Now type your query in the address bar and boom!, you will get Google search results.
This way you can successfully replace OpenDNS search with Google. Similarly, you can enter a different string value in the box to add another search engine.
Do you know the string value for Bing or other search engines? Mention them in the comments if you do. ????
