I have a computer problem. A stupid one, which I should know how to fix. But, alas, I do not. So I'm calling upon help. A while ago, I downloaded something, (forgot) and it somehow changed it so whenever I type something into the address bar, it defaults and go's to Ask.com search (e.g. I type in giantitp, and it searches for giantitp.) But, before this incident, It was setup so that if I typed in giantitp, it would directly go to giantitp.com. But, I don't know how to set it to do this, instead of Ask search. Help? :smallsigh:

go to "about:config"

filter for "keyword.url"

right click, modify to "http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q="
