yahoo search malware cannot be removed from my Mac

more options

I've tried setting my default search engines (even though Yahoo isn't even included); I've tried checking the addons and deleting them all; I've tried deleting the application as well as my user folder and ~library files (doing a clean install from Mozilla's website); I've tried installing MalwareBytes, running a scan and rebooting. Nothing so far has worked.

Every time I reboot and attempt to search from the address bar, I get Yahoo Search results.

Thank you for the detailed configuration information. Unfortunately, that page doesn't show details of your search engine plugins.

Q: What is your current default search engine plugin?

Some third party search plugins like McAfee may show Yahoo results.

Q: Have you tried disabling extensions to see whether those might be causing the problem?

You can view, disable, and often remove unwanted or unknown extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:

  • Command+Shift+a (Windows: Ctrl+Shift+a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
  • type or paste about:addons in the address bar and press Enter/Return

In the left column of the Add-ons page, click Extensions.

Then cast a critical eye over the list on the right side. Any extensions Firefox installs for built-in features are hidden from this page, so everything listed here is your choice (and your responsibility) to manage. Anything suspicious, nonessential, or that you just do not remember installing or why? If in doubt, disable (or remove), at least for testing.

Any improvement?
