How can I stop babylon when I click on Firefox?
When I click on Firefox, babylon screen comes up. I don't want babylon, I want the optimum screen. I have not installed any plug-ins and had been using Internet Explorer when I had AT&T Yahoo as my provider and used their browser.

See How to set the home page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

A simple yet effective way to diable the computer to connect to Babylon all together is to modify the "Hosts" file.
You'll find the file at "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts" (no filtype suffix).
Open it with i.e. Notepad, it should look somewhat like this:
- Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
- This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
- This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
- entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
- be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
- The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
- space.
- Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
- lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
- For example:
- 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
- 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
- localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
- 127.0.0.1 localhost
Now you simply add one line like this: 127.0.0.1 search.babylon.com
Save the file and your coputer will never get in touch with babylon search again, not even if you type the address into your browser!
