Yahoo Search redirect
Firefox is defaulting to Yahoo search even though google is the only search engine under options. Any idea how Yahoo is being selected.

I notice the Tab Pro extension in your System Details list.
You can also do a malware scan just to be sure.
When I click on the add-on button it just opens a new blank screen. The list of extension with switches is not shown.
Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if that works.
- Windows: hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox
- Mac: hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or userChrome.css is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
