One possible culprit would be an extension. You can view, disable, and often remove unwanted or unknown extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
- Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Shift+a)
- "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then cast a critical eye over the list on the right side. All extensions are optional. If in doubt, disable.
Be especially suspicious of anything from Yahoo itself or "Searchme".
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Can you regain control of your Firefox?
Note: if you are able to use the default search engine and home page of your choice during your session, but Firefox starts up with different settings the next time, please see this article: How to fix preferences that won't save.
Firefox is the web browser as Yahoo and Google are search engines.
