Searches from the Firefox home page are redirecting to Yahoo instead of Google. This didn't used to happen. How do I change it back?

If I enter a search into the Firefox home page I get results from Yahoo instead of Google. The search window in the tool bar above still goes to Google. How do I fix this?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
