I have never had firefox mistake a url for a search, though.
I have plenty of times, which is why I went hunting for a way to disable it.
FYI, the magic about:config key that you need to set to false is "keyword.enabled". After that Firefox will finally stop using any non-url string as a search query and will instead say say "Hmm. That address doesnβt look right. Please check that the URL is correct and try again."
Thanks!
huh. did you remember to feed the fox all the cookies websites give you? that normally keeps her happy.
Begrudgingly yes.
I'm out of ideas. Best to bury your computer in the back yard.
