Since the last upgrade I believe, I cannot remove the Yahoo search from my search field. Yes, I can temporarily remove it by selecting the manage search engines, but everytime I restart FF it reappears. Can you please tell me how to get rid of this forever! there is no Yahoo tool bar as many have suggested, just the search field. thank you kindly for any assistance. Someonezmom
