how to reset the default search engine
I want the search engine to be reset to a default one, say "Google" every time I restart FF. Currently, it remembers whatever is last used. For example, if I searched "IMDB", next time FF starts, it defaults to "IMDB" rather than "Google".

Here is what I did:
user_pref("browser.search.defaultenginename", "Google");
user_pref("browser.search.selectedEngine", "Google");
anything wrong?
user_pref("browser.search.defaultenginename", "Google");
user_pref("browser.search.selectedEngine", "Google");
anything wrong?
