Hi all,
Whenever I open FireFox, the Bing search engine shows up. Clicking on Google
doesn't change this. Anyone else had this happen to them?
TIA,
Joe Wilkins

In the left part of the search field is a drop down menu, that I guess
currently says Bing for you. You can change that back to Google.

Thanks Colin, but I can't find it. Too small and/or blurred I guess. Doesn't
happen when I switch over to Safari.

Can you see the little down arrow next to the Google logo?:

Thanks Fellas,
Even after removing Bing and restarting and Quitting/starting, Bing still
showed up as the active search engine. I don't trust them at all now. VERY
insidious! Guess I'll just use Safari now. Seems as if it's a little better
than it was a couple of months ago.

That seems odd. You can edit the prefs files directly in a text editor.
It's not difficult or

Try this:
In Finder, go here:
/Users/your name/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/some
number.default/searchplugins/
Look for Bing in there and delete it or move it

Thanks for the effort,

Always remember, when in doubt, don't pause for thought, or accept

for one's own actions, just blame Microsoft as an instinctive, knee-jerk
reaction.
However, despite my urge to do that, everything with Mozilla seems very
straightforward indeed:
Thanks everyone. I'll need luck. (smile) I don't usually dig into any of these

I give up. Too much to read and too small. Zooming just makes it worse. I
suspect I will be totally blind or everything will be screwed up before too
very long. (sigh!) Someone needs to do an app that uses a white cane to

Do you have the latest version of firefox? I have, it says version 11. On this
version (mine), on the left of the search toolbar, there should be the icon for
your current search engine (it should look like a with b on an orange
background if you have Bing)
Click on this very icon and you
François, I do have version 11. But something is definitely screwed up with
the pop-up option button you guys have suggested might fix things. For one
thing, I have trouble even finding the toolbar. Way too small; When I finally
did get something to pop-up, it had the word Search repeated
Speaking of that version, it has a very neat 3D view of the page, if you're
doing Inspect Element. You can rotate the view so that it's easy to see the
layering of the page elements.
