Earlier my search from mozilla home page redirected to google, now after some updates it brings up yahoo search page. How do I get the browser to search in google rather than any other search site?

With the about:home page loaded, paste this in the Location Bar and hit Enter.

 
javascript:{localStorage["search-engine"]="{\"name\":\"Google\",\"searchUrl\":\"http://www.google.com/search?q=_searchTerms_&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a\"}";void(0);}
 

That should change that search engine back to Google.
