Can't get rid of Make Yahoo My Homepage screen

I downloaded Avast & Malwarebytes, ran them, then deleted them. Avast downloaded Chrome automatically. I deleted that but It changed my homepage from Yahoo to something else. I got the homepage back to Yahoo but every time I call it up, another screen saying "To Make Yahoo Your Homepage Do This". I do what it says but the To Make page comes up every time Yahoo home page comes up. I tried redoing Firefox but that does not help. Assistance would be appreciated.

    • about:blank – blank page.
    • about:newtab – new tab page.
    • URL – an url of one page that you want.
