re enabling the backspace in Ubuntu firefox

I have been using firefox in windows for a long time. I like pressing the backspace when I want to go back in the browser. I have switched to Linux and noticed that the default behavior for the back space and shift backspace is a page up and page down. I found a way to fix this issue from this sie here.
I will tell you how it is done encase the link doesn't work. In fire fox type about:config in the url address bar. Then find the preference name: "browser.backspace_action". Change its value to 0 to chage the default behavior of the backspace to really go back in the browser. Then shift backspace will go forword also. I really like this fix.

IGoogle is not permanent any more

Some people say once you go to igoogle.com and start personalizing a google page then you can't get to plain google by clicking on your home page any more. Well I figured a way around it.
Type this in for your home page: http://www.google.com/url?sa=p&pref=ig&pval=1&q=/webhp
Then when you go to the home page it will be go straight to the classic home instead of going to igoogle.com. Have a great day.
