I have always had Yahoo set up as my home page. The
problem lately is that another search engine opens up.
When I look at my home page designation, it has replaced
yahoo as my home page?
How do I prevent this from happening?

Hey Randi,
This is caused by parasites. First priority: Download
CWShredder and run it.

Then, download Ad-Aware from www.lavasoftusa.com, scan
the system. Update Ad-Aware pattern files using WebUpdate
feature.
