Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I used to be able to use my Google search bar to look for things like '1120 CZK in AUD' and then be taken to a Google search results page that says:

    1120 Czech koruny = 73.4726425 Australian dollars

This doesn't happen any more. Instead, I'm taken to a Google custom search page that only lists search results for the string.
