After you reinstalled weren't you asked to pick a new search provider and such? I see zero evidence of the soso searchprovider in your logs, could you post me a screenshot of where you see it?

I would clear the browser cache and see if it still is there afterwards. Anyway, it looks like Google is default provider now, so it shouldn't cause any problem.
