For days now i have had yahoo taking over my firefox, i am not even sure why it is doing this since i never use yahoo for anything

can you please advise how this can removed since its not letting me search sites or do what i normally would

EG below https://au.search.yahoo.com/yhs/errorhandler;_ylt=AwrTccMD9f5TdScAS3.MvYlQ?p=australia.universalmedicalid.com%2Fscripts-styles%2Fjs_master.js&fr2=sb-top&hspart=gt&hsimp=yhse-gt&type=994519&rd=r3

I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled with nothing working

Goto about:config in your address bar and press the box that says i will be carefull, i promise.

Then search for browser.search.defaultenginename

and right click it and press modfiy and type Google in the pop up window.

If this does not work paste your addons here
