My Firefox Browser was just upgraded. It seems address bar searches all go through Yahoo.com. Is this by design? Not sure I like the search results...

I doubt Mozilla would want anything to do with Yahoo search engine when they even had a lawsuit with Yahoo years ago and removed Yahoo as one of the defaults as was discussed in /forums/contributors/712925

Is this with a search in Search bar or on Homepage? perhaps an extension you installed or updated recently has added a Yahoo search.
