When the auto updating message for a new version of Firefox came on the screen I clicked on it to get the new version and right after that Yahoo became my browser. I tried to eliminate Yahoo but I am not able to get rid of Yahoo. I do not want Yahoo. I hate Yahoo. I asked on how to get rid of Yahoo but the has been no reply.
