I have an annoying problem with using google search on firefox, that I
hope someone can help with.

I mostly use google for my search needs, exclusively through the search
box in firefox. I modify the behaviour of this by editing the config
file for each search plugin so that it gives me e.g 100 search results
sorted by date. This gives me a portable way of customising my results
without the need for cookies.

Of late, this does not seem to be possible. Firstly, I can't seem to
turn the "google instant" thing off. Secondly, I'm not getting my 100
results default even though I am using the same text string as earlier.

I am aware that this behaviour is supposedly configrable via google's
search settings page [1] but it is not working for me, likely because of
some interaction with the noscript plugin. I do not want to turn this off.

Any thoughts?
