Q: All my searches are coming back in the Yahoo safe finder search engine.

All my searches are coming back in the Yahoo safe finder search engine.  I've run the fixes suggested in other threads with the same problem, but I'm still getting Yahoo search results.  Google is my selected search engine. 

 

I've noticed that the problem only occurs when I type my searches in the space in the search page itself.  This search page looks somewhat like a Google page, but it doesn’t have the links etc. that Google does.  Instead, it has “SearchTech” at the bottom (along with Contact, Privacy and Terms). If I type my search topic in the menu bar the results come back in Google.

 

I’ve confirmed that my preferred search engine is Google. Previously, I ran LaunchDaemons and LaunchAgents and deleted three files from them that had been loaded onto my computer today.  I’ve checked extensions are there are none.

MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
