This is an Asus Eee PC, one year old, running Windows 7 Starter. I did something a while ago that made Yahoo my default something. I like Firefox but don't like the Yahoo interface. I want to eliminate Yahoo, but my header (toolbar?) doesn't show me Preferences in the dropdown menu anymore, which might allow me to change the home page back to Firefox without Yahoo. How do I eliminate Yahoo?

Thanks, Jim
