Lucid changes to Firefox default search provider

[John Abbott]

I'll be leaving now!  I've been a rabid supporter of UBUNTU  and have 
personally given away over 300 copies of various UBUNTU distributions.  
It was the getting into bed with Microsoft that moved me from SuSE to 
UBUNTU.   And since the revenue sharing with the Bing (Microsoft) search 
via Yah00! it is now obvious that Microsoft has their nose in the tent 
at Cononical.

I am cognizant of how easily I can change the settings back "to normal" 
in Firefox - or to use Google Chrome browser.  It is the principle that 
is in play here - Microsoft has none, apparently Cononical has little 
and I still have mine.

I'll check the various FREE distributions supported by the GNU project 
and move to one of them.
