Perform a search with "Bing" 4. Crash Firefox (for example with: http://people.mozilla.org/~tmielczarek/crashme/ ) 5. Restart Firefox and go to Settings -> Customize -> Search Expected result: - "Bing" is listed as default search engine Actual result: - "Google" is listed as default search engine

I'm not able to reproduce this. I would have guessed that this was happening in a guest session but add-ons are not installable.
Let's do this by flushing prefs.

from what I have researched in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1034136 I came to know that mozilla.cfg is the file that must be affected. And I would like to work on it, if this bug is still valid.
I'd like to work on this if it's still open.
Richard, is this bug still relevant?

Probably, but not important -- especially as we'll shift search engine management into Java.
