When I type into the navigation bar ... the place where you type in urls you want to 'go' to ... and what I type doesn't go to a url ... it goes to google.

I don't want firefox to 'helpfully' send whatever I type or mistype there to google, or to anyone else ... but especially not to google because they are truly evil geniouses!

How do I turn off ALL 'helpful' (to google, not to me!) forwarding of what I type in the url bar?

I have a separate search gizmo right next door where I type in searches. Where I have to use google now that they've broken scroogle.

Thanks. I went to your first link and had a look. Then ... 

I typed 'about:config' in the 'location bar.
 clicked past the warning
typed 'keyword.url'
double clicked on the second of two lines, which had said
 'keyword.enabled' ... 'true'
it now reads
 'keyword.enabled' ... 'false'

Now firefox just gives me an error when I type stuff that is not a url, or is a garbled url, into the location bar. Big Brother is no longer watching. From the location bar anyway. I'm sure my 'helpful' browser is still reporting lots of other stuff to Big Brother. Mozilla seems to be a subsidiary of google.
