I used to have Google as the default search engine on Firefox search bar. After Firefox was upgraded to 3.6, I noticed the search bar shows Yahoo as the search engine instead of Google. Google also disappeared from the list of search engine available on the search bar.

See if you can get back the missing search engines if you left-click the search engines icon and open Manage Search Engines and click Restore Defaults

You can try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the Firefox Profile Folder

You should check your plugins. You have two Flash plugins and two PDF plugins plus a few more plugins that need to be updated.
You can check that via https://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/

  1. Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53
  2. Macromedia Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 10.1
  3. Shockwave Flash 9.0 r28
  4. Adobe Acrobat Plug-In Version 5.00 for Netscape
  5. Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape
  6. Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_18 for Mozilla browsers


You can find the old Flash 9.0 plugin file NPSWF32.DLL in the plugins folder within the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\) and remove that file. Also remove the flashplayer.xpt file in the components folder.
