I downloaded Firefox to my Mac book pro but when I do a search it is still Google that searches and I do not want to search with Google my hope was that I would search with Firefox. Firefox is set as my default browser. I use a VPN and Google keeps making me fill in captchas before I can do a search and sometimes I have to complete up to 5 captchas asking how many squares have traffic light etc. So in short how do I set up Firefox so it is Firefox that completes the search.

Sincerely

Terry

Firefox is a web browser, not a search engine. You can use search engines other than G.
