My default search engine is GOOGLE. I am not a fan of Yahoo. I tried to upload screenshots but I guess it just to hard to upload a 127kb jpg file.

In the speed dial there is a search box I type in my search and it goes to YAHOO. Its not in my addons something is making it go to yahoo. Specifically Yahoo Philippines (Yes I live in PI)

Can anyone help me before I dump Firefox

Hi   !

In case you're not talking about the legitimate Yahoo search engine :

Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions, like e.g.:

SafeSearch Incognito SearchAssist Incognito

When you find any : remove them.

Do the same in Windows' Control Panel => Programs.

However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Further information can be found in this article :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.

They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
