Yahoo has hijacked my firefox so how do I get it back?
It is stored in this location: C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch under the Mozilla Firefox Properties/ General Tab/ location. I have tried to load the Firefox home page but it automatically goes to Yahoo. I tried to fix it but it keeps redirecting to Yahoo. Top toolbar is Yahoo Search-Web Search-Mozilla Firefox Also, when I tried to delete Yahoo, my microsoft files such as Outlook Express started deleting.

I have the same problem. Why does Yahoo resort to a piracy act like this, are they this desperate. I hate Yahoo now. This is really un-professinal and very impolite. Shame on you Yahoo.
The actual problem isn't that they switch you over to their search engine. A lot of search engines have been known to sneak in under the radar. The thing that I hate about Yahoo is that they don't give you a way to switch back. Technically, by forcing a person to open their page when they don't want to, they're essentially lying about the number of people who visit their website. It would be the equivalent of offering only one type of soda in a restaurant and then claiming that all your patrons like that soda.
