What are you talking about? The home page or the search bar?


Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0 Shockwave Flash 17.0 r0
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac

Then reinstall the latest version.

Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.

Flash Player Version: 23.0.0.207 Flash Player (Linux) Version 11.2. 202.643

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Direct link scans current system and browser Note: Other software is offered in the download.

I wonder where you downloaded Firefox from. You may have installed the Yahoo special "partner version" that has some modifications that "favor" Yahoo services and may use a Yahoo page as the Start Page for Firefox.

When you open Help > About Firefox does that window say anything about Yahoo there?


Always best to get software directly from the source - Mozilla. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop or https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
