Have followed the online instructions several times, and have selected Firefox to be my default several times, but when I open browser it keeps defaulting to Yahoo homepage. I've never even downloaded Yahoo.

Thanks for the help with must seem like a very basic issue.

Try refreshing Firefox, and then settings your home page and search engine to what you would like.

Tyler,

Thanks....that did work, and Firefox does come up as my homepage now. However when I enter something in the search box, for example BBC world news, I get Yahoo search engine results.

Rather frustrating....I'm sure there is a simple fix to this, but so far it's evading me.

Thanks again,

Eric

Followed the instructions and selected Google for search engine, but still getting Yahoo results.

Also, after logging off and back on, the Yahoo homepage returned.

Starting to think Yahoo has a thing for me.  :)

In any event, I do appreciate the help.

Tyler,

The refreshing seemed to fix the problem. So far it's working and loading with Mozilla.

I really want to thank you for your patience in helping me fix this.

Thanks again,
