Start your Firefox, then click Tools in the upper left (or ALT+T will open Tools as well). Select Options at the bottom. Make sure that "When Firefox starts" is set to Show My Home Page - if it is not, use the drop down menu to the right to select this option. Then, the next area is "Home Page", make sure the following is in the box:  http://www.google.com ; if it is not in that box, change it. Click OK, this should reset your home page to Google.
