Hey folks,

as the yubnub firefox extension won't work in newer firefox versions,
and i dont like to use just one big searchbar because it doesnt show
the url... i found a nice workaround for using yubnub in the
addressbar.

just do this:

1. type "about:config" in your addressbar, hit enter and promise that
you'll be careful..
2. enter "keyword.URL" in the filter textfield. youll see that theres
just one item left
3. double click it and enter "http://www.yubnub.org/parser/parse?
command="

that's it!

now you can still type urls and yubnub commands in your addressbar.

the only remaining problem is the persistent garbage in your firefox
history... i have got no clue what to do 'bout that.

I'm of the same opinion on the so-called "Awesome" bar.

Suggest using "about:config" to modify the following:

browser:urlbar.maxRichResults default integer 12

Change the integer from "12" to "0".
