I downloaded a screen saver and after installing it I ended up with a Yahoo search page every time I start Firefox. It is not in my plugins or addons so I can't remove it there. It is not in my list of installed programs so I can't uninstall it.

I have reinstalled Firefox and it is still there. How can I remove it?

Hi gunnermac,

You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article How to set the home page. Your homepage might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc have been know to ask to become your homepage.

There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.

If Yahoo has been set as the default search in the search bar, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox.

If the address bar search has been changed as well, you might want to take a look at Location bar search.

If that doesn't work you should look at the article How to fix preferences that won't save.

Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some Malware.

Hopefully this helps!
