dsweeney64 Posted September 9, 2009 ID:123482 Share Posted September 9, 2009 A couple of months ago I downloaded Yahoo Chat. It put all sorts of Yahoo junk on my computer. I removed all of it except that search engine. I cannot get it removed and the malware/spyware doesn't find it. I run Windows Vista. I have Firefox 3.5. When I type in a Google search, it sometimes takes me to the Yahoo search page. With Google, I used to be able to type in a web address and be taken there, even if I didn't type in "www" first. NOW every time I try and do that, I get taken to Yahoo and it does a search. I feel like my computer has been taken over by an alien. I am really irritated that I can't get this one last bit of Yahoo removed. Any help would be very much appreciated. I am NOT computer literate-just so ya know.

Firefox Posted September 9, 2009 ID:123507 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Just a thought, since Yahoo and Microsoft Bing are now partners, try looking for Bing in your add and remove programs.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
