EDIT: **SOLVED** --> Sorry to be a pest guys, I was trying to fix things for quite a while before i posted on here, but the solution was quite trivial. I had to change 'Default search engine' in the dropbox in Safari preferences > general (duh) as well as the 'Homepage' default. Again, sorry, I'm a bit of a Mac noob!

Hi everyone,
I need your help. I installed uTorrent, and in the latest version they sneakily change your web browsing settings. My homepage and address bar search settings were changed from Google to Yahoo. I've gone into Preferences > General > home page and changed it back to Google, and I've deleted Safari extensions in preferences too, which changed the homepage back, HOWEVER, if I search from the address bar, it still uses Yahoo! I want Google back! It is exceedingly frustrating, please help me fix this niggling problem.
Thanks,
Matt

EDIT: By the way, I'm using MBA OS 10.9 Mavericks.
