How can I remove yahoo from firefox?

I downloaded a screensaver and after installing it I'm done with a Yahoo Search page whenever 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 reinstalled Firefox and it's still there.
How can I remove it?

Hi gunnermac,

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

There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.

If Yahoo has been set as the default search in the search bar, you should take a look in the Knowledge Base using the search in Firefox bararticle.

If the address bar search has been changed, so you can take a look at Search the Web from the address bar.

If this does not work, you should look the article How to fix preferences that will not save.

Finally, your problem may be because you have been hit by some malware.

Hope this helps!

  • How can I remove entries from the catalog of PSE 8 Organizer when his picture does not appear in the browser?

    I imported a group of files in the folder, and organizer gave me the pop-up "new files in track files" and imported correctly.  Then I used Windows to copy these files in the folder B, also a control folder.  Once again, organizer gave me the pop-up "new files in follow the folder" correctly, BUT showed no files imported into the browser, despite everything show, etc.  I used Windows to delete all files in the folder B, then has tried to re - import.  Organizer doesn't say ' no file imported, because they already exist in this folder.  Apparently, the files are saved in the catalog, even if they are not physically there.  How can I remove these catalog when there are no photos in the browser, I can click and say ' Delete catalog?

    Oh, ugh!

    The answer to your question of title, is that you cannot correct this situation by using the Organizer.  Without a doubt, something in your database (catalogue) is screwed up.  The database is a SQLite database, so if you know someone who is a type of database that is experienced, it can use a database query tool to clean the entries in the media_table table.  This can be more or less a complicated matter, depending on how much other data you must save - you will certainly need to work closely with him on this issue.

    The best thing to do, of course, is to create a new catalog and start from scratch.  Lose all your work with labels and albums will result, but...

    At least now you know how to get copies of your photos in the Organizer in the right way.
