If you append &tbs=li to the end of the query URL, google does a literal search.

If you want it as a default, add it to your browser as a search engine plugin: http://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.html?name=google+ve...

Or: Search tools → All results → Verbatim

To the poster below, putting the query in double quotes definitely does not do exact string matching.
