How do I fix Firefox 3′s search bar as a result of YIM?

The Shot In The Dark asked:
Since I installed the latest version of Yahoo Messenger, it seems to have broken the search bar in Firefox 3, to where it will no longer go directly to sites. For example, if you typed “Wikipedia”, it would automatically go to Wikipedia. Now, it just redirects to a Yahoo search page for “Wikipedia” instead of going directly to the site.

I’m pretty sure it had something to do with me leaving the “Make Yahoo my Default Search Engine” option checked.
