How do I GET RID OF GOOGLE in the search in the middle of my screen?

I am not talking about Google on the top right corner of my screen, I am talking about the middle of the monitor where it has Google tied in with Firefox?
I got rid of Google altogether because of the drop down box when searching, everything I tried didn't get rid of it so I come to the conclusion that Google is GARBAGE~!~! And INTRUSIVE GARBAGE AT THAT.~!~
I AM GOING TO SEND ALL MY FRIENDS TO FIREFOX.

Try changing your homepage.

How do I get rid of Google as a search engine, new computer. windows 7. shows yahoo as unavailable?

I tried changing the search engine to yahoo in about:config. but google keeps coming up. In manage search engines None were available and google wasn't listed. I'm not sure how to proceed.

If you are referring to the Search on the Default Firefox Homepage (about:home), then that can not be changed, not easily atleast. The default homepage is hardcoded to use Google as its search provider.
To change the Firefox Default Homepage search provider you need to edit aboutHome.xhtml and aboutHome.dtd; Which will take Web Development Coding skillz.
If you are having trouble with the homepage Preference not saving after following the steps Here: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set Homepage.]
Then you may need to refer to these two articles:

If it happens again the make sure that you aren't suppressing website colors.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

How do I get rid of BTFON from the service provider as it takes over everything??

How do I get rid of BTFON from the service provider as it takes over everything??

No idea what BTFON is or what "service provider" you mean, or what you mean by saying that it "takes over everything". Is this a wireless network that you wish to stop connecting to? If so, open System Preferences, click Network, then select AirPort, then click the Advanced button, then select the AirPort tab. In the list that appears, select BTFON and click the '-' button.
If that's not what you're talking about, you'll need to be more specific.

How do I get rid of genii as my search engine

how do I get rid of genii as my search engine

You installed the "Genieo/InstallMac" rootkit. The product is a fraud, and the developer knowingly distributes an uninstaller that doesn't work. I suggest the tedious procedure below to disable Genieo. This procedure may leave a few small files behind, but it will permanently deactivate the rootkit (as long as you never reinstall it.)
Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data. You must know how to restore from a backup even if the system becomes unbootable. If you don't know how to do that, or if you don't have any backups, stop here and ask for guidance.
Step 1
In the Applications folder, there should be an item named "Genieo". Select it and open the Finder Info window. If it shows that the Version is less than 2.0, download and install the current version from the genieo.com website. This may seem paradoxical, since the goal is to remove it, but you'll be saving yourself some trouble as well as the risk of putting the system in an unusable state.
There should be another application in the same folder named "Uninstall Genieo". After updating Genieo, if necessary, launch "Uninstall Genieo" and follow the prompts to remove the "newspaper-style home page." Restart the computer.
This step does not completely inactivate Genieo.
Step 2
Don't take this step unless you completed Step 1, including the restart, without any error messages. If you couldn't complete Step 1, stop here and ask for instructions.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.
If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder should open with an item named "GenieoExtra.framework" selected. Move that item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
Move each of these items to the Trash in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
/usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib/usr/lib/libgenkitsa.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib~/Library/Application Support/com.genieoinnovation.Installer~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.download.plist
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those listed above, move them as well. There's no need to restart after each one. Some of these items will be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
Step 3
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including ones called "Genieo" or "Omnibar," and any that have the word "Spigot" or "InstallMac" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Your web browser(s) should now be working, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install this software. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad has a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If youever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Genieo developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. It must be said that this failure of oversight is inexcusable and has seriously compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You cannot rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the developer sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." If that happens, don't believe anything he says, but feel free to tell him what you think of his scam.

How do I get rid of Google Custom Search as my default search?

Every time I start FF it has Google Custom Search in the location bar search box. I have delete it multiple times, but the next time I start FF, it is back in the box. I want Bing as my primary search engine. How do I get rid of the Google Custom Search???
Also, how do I get rid of that CouponNetwork Coupon Activator? I have looked for it to delete the file, but can't find it. How do I get rid of it??
Thanks

That page didn't & has not worked. I have gone through & deleted all the search engines except Bing, probably 15-20 times. When I restart FF Google Custom Search is back in the list & is displayed in the seach box, even though Bing is listed first or the only one in the management section & supposed to be the default.
On the Coupon Activator, that is what I thought also, but it is not listed on the Add/Remove program. I have even done a search on my drive for that filename, but it can't be found.
Any other ideas for both problems???
Thanks

How do I get rid of Google each time I open firefox?

How do I get rid of the Google that sits on the page. I think I have the right to deside when I wish to use google - no body else.

Thanks for the thought - but I probably do not understand. I expect to see "About:blank". If I set that up I get instead "About:home" and even then it seems google is still in the center of the page - and there is even a list of "abouts" to consider.
I must have a search engine of some sort - I would prefer one that is not doubling up as a statistics collector. I want to be able to get an empty page with the option to put in my search (or address) at the head and not see anything else. Every time I experiment with that need, eventually Google comes back. It used to be like that in the old days....

The place that has the spot is about the size is about 2cm,it still works where the spot is. I haven't sat on my phone or hit it too hard, not that I remember. I noticed a while ago. Will it disappear? I can see the things that should be where the spot is eg it's on the keyboard and I can see the keys. Will this spread to the whole screen? How can u get rid of this?

How can I get rid of some of the icons cluttering the toolbar?

My browser is full of unnecessary icons which is cluttering the top section of my screen. For example I have several on recipes, several on clouds, a couple on screensavers, wall papers and e-cards. How can I get rid of some of them?

How do I get rid of Google Adsense on my web site?

I did not ask for the Google ads that appear at the bottom of my web site and they appear there without my choice: www.mvhsclassof1959.com
How do I get out of this? Nowhere on the Google Adsense help pages does it tell you how to get out of this. I don't even have an account name and I never requested Google ads, and therefore cannot access any type of help. Again I never did request Google Adsense when using iWeb to build my site. Help! Where do I go to get out of this?

That is a Google search entity that's at the bottom. Did you somehow put a search function in the site. They just don't show up unless there's been some type of interaction with Google.
Viewing the source the pages are in a frame page with your site's page in the top frame and the Google search pnp in the bottom frame. The code is:
<frameset frameborder="0" framespacing="0" border="0" rows="*,60">
<frame name="TOPFRAME" src="http://web.mac.com/ljkloncz1/MVClass_of1959/Welcome.html"
noresize>
<frame name="TOPFRAME" src="ufad.php" scrolling=no noresize>
<noframes>
So somehow the php search function got added to your site. Where did you buy your domain name? Google? If so then it might be that the search function was added when you setup the domain name and forwarding. Check your account there and see if there's a checkbox for a search function somewhere that's been selected. They are sneaky that way.

How can I get rid of firefox, and the download everytime i go to home page

Firfox Setup Stub 32.0 exe, automatically downloads itself every time I go to the my home page. Why? I don't use firefox, I like Chrome. I have downloaded FF before, just to try to get rid of the annoying download page

Have you set the Firefox download page as the home page in Chrome? It can happen by accident. You should be able to set it back to the default in the Chrome settings. Here's how to set the home page in Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95314?hl=en
Btw, if you've stopped using Firefox a while ago, it has gotten much faster and more lightweight recently. You might want to give it another try.
Cheers!
