Every time I press the + button to ipen a new tab it opens to a "Yahoo" search page. How can I change what page is opened.

In other words, I don't want Yahoo to open when I press on the + button, instead I need to know how to change the default page to something else like Bing or Google etc.

Your help is much appreciated.
