add to prefs.js or preferably user.js (since that overrides prefs.js):
user_pref("keyword.URL", "http://www.google.com/search?q=";);

95% of the time, all you have to do is type your search terms in the 
location bar. Occassionally, it will "almost" get a url match, so just 
typing in your search terms won't work. If that happens, just put 
"keyword:" in front of it (Ctl-L, Home, keyword: and you don't even have 
to take your hands off the keyboard =)

There is another super-useful tip out there to disable ads and webbugs 
from some of the more prominent violators (doubleclick, etc ad nauseum) 
by adding stuff to your userContent.css. Works friggin great! I have a 
copy if anyone wants it and can't find it.
