Yes, something has changed the default search from Google to Yahoo. I was actually waiting for someone else to answer, because I've never really dealt with this. I always just use the Google Toolbar.
Anyway, there doesn't seem to be a simple way of changing this setting (that I've noticed), but you should be able to do it manually, if there are no better suggestions.
You'd type "about:config" (no quotes) in the address bar, and then scroll down to "browser.search.defaultenginename", right-click to modify, and change it to Google.
While you're there, look at entries like "browser.search.order.1", and see that everything is kosher, as well.
