The past three days, each time I log on and click internet explorer, I get redirected to "search.yahoo.com/images"..

I cleared cache, did cleanmgr, rebooted and this still won't go away. :confused:

Running XPSP2(upgrades all up to date)
IE6
Spybot is clear.
Panda AV program

Attached is HJT log and CAonline virus scan(which is negative for any virus)

I would greatly appreciate your help..

Thanks in advance

I appreciate your help, and look forward to your reply:)
 
Thanks for returning your information, this is a clean HJT log except for the fact that Java needs an update:
http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_07\ <<< check for an update

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > General tab, and tell me what address in in the Home Page address box.
Let me know about any problems you are still experiencing.

Thanks
 
OK..

isp.netscape.com

I uninstalled my Yahoo! toolbar thinking this could somehow be part of the problem, reinstalled the updated version, and when I rebooted, and clicked on IE icon to open my browser-- search.yahoo.com/images page came up again!

So I uninstalled the toolbar again..

Any help is greatly appreciated :) (I do need to use the toolbar)
 
OK, I will have to say I don't know. I could run scans but they are probably not going to pickup on what appears to be a valid item:
http://www.google.com/search?source...GLG:2006-16,GGLG:en&q=search.yahoo.com/images I personally do not allow Yahoo on my computer, they are in bed with the enemy. I suggest you contact them for instructions as to how to remove their junk.
