I like using Google, and have no reason to want to change it. My desktop has suddenly changed (without my input) to Ask.com. My netbook has suddenly changed (again, without my input) to Bing.com.

Can u help me change it back?

Thank you.

You can open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for ask or bing via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.
You can reset all related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.
