Despite uninstall and reinstall of firefox it suddenly and irrevocably switches to yahoo as default nothing I do prevents this or can correct it
I will not repeat the problem except that YAHOO keeps installing, setting itself as default, cannot be removed.
NONE of the answers are either relevant or help.
Frankly I am so fed up with the problem and the inability of anyone to resolve this YAHOO VIRUS that I am on the point of removing Firefox for ever

Hello there,
- On Firefox click the menu button and choose Options on Windows or Preferences on Mac or Linux, then select the Search settings panel.
- Click on the magnifying glass icon in the Search bar, then click on Change Search Settings.
In the Search settings panel that opens, select a different search engine from the drop-down menu

Look in your Add-ons Manager, and in your computers Programs Folder. Remove Yahoo ANYTHING !
Bookmark and use this; Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
Settings Guard for Firefox {web link} Detects and resets changes to settings that are frequently done by add-ons and application installers.
