Earlier my search from mozilla home page redirected to google, now after some updates it brings up yahoo search page. How do I get the browser to search in google rather than any other search site?

My firefox opens with the default firefox search page. Enter any keywords to search and click on search. What happened earlier : My browser came up with search results from google. Now : It brings search results from Yahoo .

With the about:home page loaded, paste this in the Location Bar and hit Enter. 

 
javascript:{localStorage["search-engine"]="{\"name\":\"Google\",\"searchUrl\":\"http://www.google.com/search?q=_searchTerms_&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a\"}";void(0);}

That should change that search engine back to Google.
