Somehow "Ask' became my default browser. How can I get it changed back to Firefox ?

Ask is not a browser. It is a search engine. Are you having trouble with the search bar, or the home page?

Bookmark and use this; Download the Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
