Hi  ! Yahoo Search is a legitimate search engine, but you may be dealing with search.yahoo.com redirect virus, malware that you of course want to get rid of.

Go to the 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Addons => Extensions and look for
any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions.

When you find any : remove them.

Do the same in Windows' Control Panel.

However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
