When I open a new tab it now opens to Yahoo! search engine instead of the "Location bar autocomplete." How do I change it back?

I like using the "Location bar autocomplete" feature when I open a new tab; however, recently when I open a new tab it goes to Yahoo! search engine. I did not set this up. How do I change it back to keep using "Location bar autocomplete"?

Chosen solution

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