Doesn't do anything for me either. In my case, control K takes me into AOL and alt down arrow does absolutely nothing. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David" <[email protected]> To: "Thomas N. Chan" <[email protected]>; "'gw-info'" <[email protected]>

HMM, well.
I open Firefox.
Hit Ctrl-K, and immediately Google Search loads.
I try to hit Alt-Down, but that gives me absolutely no reaction.

So, apparently, there might be a setting somewhare for getting to change the search provider. As I said, Ctrl-K doesn't even leave me the chance of doing anything, before the Google page loads.

Firefox should be up-to-date, since I updated it only a couple of hours ago.

Any ideas, of what setting might need to be changed, or if I am missing out somewhere in the steps outlined below?

All you need to do to change that is, hit ctrl - k
Alt - down arrow and find  manage search engine.
It works for the latest version of firefox 19 and in fact, it work for a
while now.

At one time in firefox you could hit control K and Google would be the
default search engine. And  if I remember correctly by hitting alt down
arrow you could rotor through different search engine in the list. I don't
know how this  Bing became my default search engine. I've checked in
programs and features to remove it, but it's not listed. It's not listed in
firefox add on's either. Essentially I need  to know how I can get
accessible Google to open when I hit control K instead of Bing.
