Removing Vuze From Firefox

I downloaded vuze to my lappy and tried to minimize the amount of extra crap I got in the process (toolbars etc...) but one thing I wasn't able to remove was a search engine. If I accidentally mis-spell a site name, rather than re-directing to google, it re-directs to what looks like an imitation google site with vuze…

I downloaded vuze to my lappy and tried to minimize the amount of extra crap I got in the process (toolbars etc...) but one thing I wasn't able to remove was a search engine.

If I accidentally mis-spell a site name, rather than re-directing to google, it re-directs to what looks like an imitation google site with vuze logos where the google logs should be.

Can anybody tell me how to remove this thing please?

Or is it harmless and nothing to worry about?
