Safari problem

Hi! I'm having a problem with my search engine on Safari. My search engine is set on Google, but every time I type something yahoo search engine opens and it's really annoying. I don't have any Safari extensions (I've checked), but after some research I checked my LaunchDaemons folder in Finder and found this com.SearchVirtualInfoP.plist that was created about the same time that I've realised I have this problem. I was just wondering is it safe to just move this folder to the Trash and will that fix my problem?
