I use "Firefox" on Mac. I have never used anything Yahoo and don`t intend to. I just don`t like it. There is a website I currently visit for a course I am taking and now it keeps redirecting me to a Yahoo search result. I tried clearing my history, caches, cookies, etc. I also tried changing my DNS. I don`t have the Yahoo toolbar downloaded so I couldn´t do any through that. I am able to access the website using "Chrome" or "Safari" but I would much rather use Firefox.

Please help!! 

Thank you beforehand for any suggestions.

If you also want to change the order of the search engines, do this:

Starting in Firefox 34:
