Hi folks, I've got it worked out now, thanks to Howard. What I was doing before was invoking QS, hitting the "period" key for the text box, typing text, and then choosing "Search with Google". That would open Safari even though Firefox is my default browser. Now I'm doing this: invoking QS, typing "Goo..." and immediately "Google Search" appears, followed by "Search for...". I tab over to the text field, type the search text, hit return, and Firefox opens as expected. Thanks again.
