Use google encrypted search from the Firefox bar

If you want to get normal encrypted search from the firefox search bar do the following:

Navigate to your profile folder for firefox

  *  Windows : C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\(profilename)\

  *  Mac : ~/Library/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>

Once in your profile folder, edit the "search.json" file.

Look for "google.com" in the file, and everywhere you find it, replace the preceding http with httpS

There should be 3 references to it.
