When I'm on the Firefox browser, I note that if I want to search the web for something, it uses Google. Does that make sense? Did I do something wrong when I installed Firefox? If so, how do I correct it? Thanks.

What would you like to use to search the web? It uses Google in your country (and there's nothing strange about it), but you can change the default search engine to whatever you want.
