I use Firefox on my Mac and always use Google. Lately it has reverted to Yahoo. I know how to go and change the search settings to Google. I've even deleted Browser Default from the One-Click Search Engine but within four days it returns and Yahoo is set back as my search engine. It's annoying. I want to use Google not Yahoo. How can I get rid of Yahoo and set it for Google permanently?

It's very possible that you have Malware on your computer, www.malwarebytes.com, run a full scan, and remove anything it finds.

After that, please go to about:addons in your address bar, and look over the list and see if there are any that you don't recognize.
