Linux Mint uses a custom search to generate ad revenue. Removing the "branded" results from showing up when you're using the "awesome bar" in FF4 was a pain....but there was a pretty easy way to do it...this might work for the MediaCom problem too.....
First, do a generic search on Google (or your search engine of choice): Copy the url up to the ="Your Search Terms"
Second, go to about:config in FF
Third, Filter for browser.search.searchenginesURL
Fourth, modify the string to be the one you copied to the clipboard....now all your searchs thru the awesome bar will be routed directly to the search engine. Does this fix your issue?
