Opening a new tab brings up Bing where I used to get Google. How do I change this back?
Dell laptop running Windows XP. I downloaded a "theme" for my Firefox page, which I have since un-installed. Now when I open a new tab I get Bing, where I used to get Google. I want to revert to Google but I can't seem to find a way to change this setting.

Firefox by default will show a blank tab when creating a new tab, if a new tab opens to a specific site this is likely to be caused by an add-on. Check through the settings for your tab related add-ons to see if they have that feature.
How are you opening that Tab?
Is your Home page setting still correct?
See Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
