How to Remove Google Search Box in Firefox
I already blogged about how to remove the search box in Google Toolbar for Firefox, but there are some users who didn’t install the toolbar, and just want to remove the Google Search Box in Firefox. Though the steps are the same, my previous post may be unclear to those who are not using the Google Toolbar. So to remove the Google Search box, here are the steps:
First, right click on any part of the toolbar then choose customize. A new smaller window will appear with a lot of icons in it. You will also see a hand cursor. Move this hand cursor over the Google Search box, and then grab the box into the icon window. Then click done. After doing these steps, the Google Search box is gone in your Firefox browser.
Below are ‘before’ and ‘after’ screenshots:
