How do I get rid of yahoo as the search engine? I did an update a few weeks ago and now Yahoo is the search engine. Prior to this I was using Google. The difference if Google is like chatting with an intelligent college graduate and Yahoo is like dealing with a 4-year old.

I am ready to switch from Firefox to Chrome if this is cannot be resolved.

Type about:preferences#search<enter> in the address bar. You can select any search engine to be your default from here.

You can also remove any engine from here.
