You did a security update on 12/9/14 and in the process you "slammed" me from having Google as my default search engine to having Yahoo as default. I HATE THIS!!! Put Google back as my default search engine ASAP!

hello NKElectric, yahoo will be the default search provider in the US in firefox starting with version 34: https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/11/19/promoting-choice-and-innovation-on-the-web/

it's as easy as always to change your default search to google or a different provider of your choosing: Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox
