Public bug reported:
Firefox seems to have changed the default search engine from Google to Interia
recently, and I can't change it back manually.
about:config doesn't list anything about Interia, and the search field (I'm not
using it by default, I prefer the combo search/address box) shows Google
selected as the default search engine.
>From about:config
browser.search.defaultenginename;Google
browser.search.order.1;Google
