permanent change search engine in firefox 48

more options

The update from 47 to 48 has been devastating. This time, the search engine is always Yahoo Search. I assume Firefox gets a kick-back for this new feature.

I have no add-on or tools-bars and version 47 was fine (48 sucks). This applies to the search bar or the default home page search.

Isn't there a simply fix? I can't find a customize feature to change the default search Yahoo to eBay permanently. Its always back to Yahoo after every single search. I what my browser MY way.....not someone else ideas of what I want or need.

If I can't make Firefox mine....Its off my 4 computers here at home. To many other choices to be hamstrung by Firefox. Right now Firefox is right there with Microsoft Edge as the worse browser on the planet.
