I am using 1.5.0.4

The built-in search in my FF location bar is behaving a bit strange. When I type a phrase or a keyword, instead of returning the "I'm feeling lucky" result, I get re-directed to a "Yahoo advanced search" page.

Notes:
I do not have a Yahoo tool bar
I have a google tool bar

Has anybody come across a similar problem?

Have tried all the "First three" replies already.

Changed the homepage to google
Removed Yahoo toolbar completely
Changed the search-bar in top right to google

None works.

You probably had yahoo toolbar installed at some point. Check the toolbar help page on how to reset this to the Firefox default:

In the upper right hand corner of Firefox there is a pulldown menu for your defaul search engine....(little arrow pointing down)
Change it to Google

You set your default search engine to Yahoo!
Change the settings!
