I downloaded yahoo messenger. with that came the yahoo tool bar. I uninstalled the yahoo toolbar. The uninstall was apparently successful. At least this is the message i got from windows. Also the yahoo toolbar is does not show on my program file nor on the list of program to be uninstalled. Yet every time I start firefox, there it is. Even when I go to option on firefox and unclick the yahoo toolbar to hide it, it disapear as long as I am logged on. Turn firefox off and start it up again... the stupid yellow smiling face shows up again. I uninstalled the messenger and all other yahoo product I could. please help me get rid of this bug like toolbar.

Do you have the My.Freeze.com NetAssistant ?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
