Google search does not respect location (Gloria - KDE)

[ThorbjørnTux]

When I use firefox and the Google search box in the right corner I do not get the results I want.
(and importantly I get wrong results compared with a regular google search - and what other linux-dists give me)

The problem is that I do not get my local (danish) results before any english.

e.g. I type 'test' (no ') in firefox and the top result is:
http://www.test.com/

However if I go to www.google.com I am redirected to www.google.dk and when I search 'test' I am getting
http://www.iqtest.dk/main.swf

This was just an example, but my point is that your google-search which gives you funds are often useless.
It is a lot more a bug than a feature.

If I e.g. want to buy hardware it is important that I see my locale (danish) pages 'first'.

I have made google.com my home page and I try to avoid using the firefox (google) search.
(I also consider to use Yahoo)

Please fix it.

Localized search does not work
We also recently learned that the calculator in Google (type 1+1 in the search field does not work)
This should be fixed in Mint 9 if possible

The google search shorcut in firefox does not work like Husse expected in Mint 9. Typing 1+1 into it does not result in google calculator coming up with 1+1=2. The search results are still different to doing a search through google's home page. The problem is that when going through firefox it puts + in between every word
