If you type "how to help" in the URL bar of abrowser it redirects to a Microsoft website

Description

I accidentally typed "how to help" into the URL bar (I meant to type it into the search bar) and it redirected me to a microsoft website. If anything it should redirect to our page on how to help

The way the browser works is, if you type something that's not an URI into the location bar, a beforehand set search engine gets used with that as a query and using the first hit.

In Abrowser the search engine is duck duck go, so this is really not up to trisquel to fix.

Oh ok, I'll mark it as wrong then. I did notice that it went to duck duck go before hand. Thanks for the info lembas.
