Why, when I type "s" in the adress box, does Mcdonald's website come up?  Are they taking over the alphabet too?

Tom's Hardware comes up for me. If you're using Firefox it comes up with the first result for that search from Google.

when you type in an illegal URL in firefox, it googles what you typed in and takes you to the first google result for that search term.  other browsers may do the same thing

it's the first result in Google.

I'm not certain about this...but I think it's the first result in google.  Maybe.

Yeah, you have this strange habit of replying a few seconds to a minute after I post.  It's a little unnerving.
