Following my download of the last Firefox update instead of getting my yahoo home page by clicking on Firefox ikon I now get a Google page with a search bar. By left-clicking thereon a drop-down button "google.com" appears below the bar. Clicking thereon gives me a page of many Yahoo links. Clicking on the topmost finally gets me my home page. That's two or three more steps than I had to take before. The update didn't improve things for me. It made using Firefox more inconvenient.

I have been accessing Firefox home page more recently than 7 months ago -- just a few hours ago, for instance. But now, this time suddenly Firefox is putting obstacles in my way. WHY ??
