How to set google as my default browser instead of bing?

I used to be able to type in my internet browser address bar and google would default as the search engine. My computer did an update, now Bing is the default browser and I hate it. How do I set up google to be the default again, or am I just forced to change my habits and add on the google toolbar to the browser menu?

    If you are using Internet Explorer download Google Chrome (it's free). The URL bar (address bar) will automatically be set for Google for whenever you search for things in the address bar. Plus the browser is more flexible and better looking than Internet Explorer.

    I use internet explorer 9 a lot. I did make Google my

    default search engine. I also removed Bing.

    It is really hard to explain how I did it. And yes. IE 9

    works fine and is just as good as Google Chrome or

    Firefox. I use 6 different web browsers. I know everyone

    cuts down internet explorer. I have two or three things that

    will only work on internet explorer.
