I tried to search for a bug on top of the buglist by typing in some keywords. I
got the message:
"You are trying to search Bugzilla from the Mozilla search sidebar, which
recently made Bugzilla its default search engine for some strange reason,
causing us to block all queries from the sidebar so we wouldn't get swamped with
requests intended for Google and the like. If you want us to remove this block,
and you know who's responsible for the list of search engines in the sidebar,
contact Myk Melez at myk@mozilla.org."

I neither tried to search from the sidebar (which I never used) nor made
Bugzilla as its standard search engine! This error thus prevents me from
searching a bug.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Blocks: 179176
Its the same search. Myk, can you update the text to refer to the helper, too?

See bug 179500 for why this was temporarily blocked.

We're getting dupes for this, so the message should be updated in teh mean time.

Not all searches are broken. *Only* the search field presented when filing a new
bug displays the inappropriate message. I can do a search in the normal search
form without problems.
