Whenever I open Firefox after having closed out my previous session, my default search (DuckDuckGo) has reverted to Yahoo in both the url bar and the search bar. I will go in and change the default settings, but the problem repeats when I open a new session. I've deleted all my cookies and cleared my history but still a problem. Help?

hello, could you go to the firefox menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? this might give us a clue what is going on...
