you can fix it easily. when you're on your correct homepage, click on Tools / Internet Options / Use Current.

Yes. Go to your control panel, internet options folder and on the first line at the top you'll see the area to change your startup page. Use "Blank" and save the change. That way, you can go to any site of your choice when opening a browser page and not be forced to go to a site of anyone else's choice. Be sure to restart the computer afterwards so that the new changes can take effect. Larry Radio Shack 01-9590

first type http://answers.yahoo.com/ and make this page as your home page then when logging in account click on "Remember my id on this computer", now when ever you open your browser what's even it is, it will go directly to http://answers.yahoo.com/ and then it will auto login to you.\n \nIf you don't select the option for remeber it will go to http://answers.yahoo.com/ but wont login you.

I'm having a similar problem where I try to open up different windows and they will open, but they won't load anything. I was told that it could be my browser settings or there could be a virus on my computer. I've gotten it fixed many times and it keeps happening.

Yahoo is testing a new layout. It is only live on ceratin data centers. Each time you hit Yahoo you could be at a different data center. So this is why your page layout changes.

I'm not totally sure of what you're asking, but I'll give it a go.   We have IE7.  You open IE and your home page, for instance Yahoo, comes up immediately.  If you "pinned open" your Favorites list, that also comes up immediately. (Like IE6, you can either have Fav open or closed).\n\nAt this point, the tab in which Yahoo came up is not fixed.  Now, suppose you want to open Yahoo Answers, you can either (1) click on Answers and it replaces the home page in the same tab (so, at this point there is just one tab open, so it's akin to being on IE6 at this point), or (2) you can hold CTRL and then click Answers, which will open a new tab for Answers, or (3) you can click on a blue arrow next to Answers if in your Favorites, which will also open a new tab for Answers.  At this point, there is one tab open with the Yahoo home page and one tab open to Answers. \n\nYou can click and search around under the Yahoo tab without affecting the Answers tab, and vice versa.  It's essentially like having two IE's open at the same time, like you have to do in IE6.  Only it's much faster and once you get the hang of it, much much easier to get around.  For instance, you can be looking at something on a multiple page site and tab it for future viewing (it'll be in it's own tab), yet continue your browsing through that site.  You don't have to back-peddle through multiple pages to find it.  It's a thing of beauty!

Which homepage (new or old) you see and some of the customizations are controlled via one or more cookies dropped on your system.\n\nHere are the quick links to switch between Yahoo's new and old home pages,\n\n"Preview the all-new Yahoo! home page" http://www.yahoo.com/r/vp\nThis appears in the upper right hand corner of the old homepage\n\n\n"Switch to old page" http://www.yahoo.com/r/vq\nThis appears in the upper left hand corner of the new homepage

This is because of the browser's "home page" setting. Depending on the browser, try selecting Tools | Internet Options. There should be an entry for "Home page". On the one computer, it is set to http://www.yahoo.com. Usually, you can enter a URL or you can press a button to use the current page. If you use IE, Netscape, Firefox, etc. the procedure differs a little bit, but essentially the same.

The page you are talking about is only temporary. From memory (am mainly a firfox user myself, although I still have IE7 installed), you can set the tab behaviour to open as a blank page or to your homepage.\n\nSo as not to get the "instructions" page, just click on the checkbox not open new tabs to that particular page.

The new Yahoo! Home page design is being rolled out to limited number of users for the purpose of collecting feedback. If your computer receives the privilege to see the new version (appears to be a lottery and only for IE browsers for now), the key to that ability is held in your browser cookies. Delete your cookies and you'll revert back to the original version.

Have you downloaded something like messenger or the toolbar after you reset the home page? Because those things often reset it. Try going again to Tools>Internet Options>and erase www.yahoo.com from the home page box and type in whatever you want.

on your interenet browser right click, check properties. on the general tab verify if the home page shows something either than yahoo. if so, change it back to yahoo.com. then select to clear history.  delete cookies and delete files.  if this does not work.. check for a trojan.  that is really what this is more so than a virus.  \n\nhope this helps.

I also have firefox, however, I do not have that problem.  Perhaps you disabled Java script?  That was the only time I had problems with yahoo.  If that is so, then simply enabling java scripts for yahoo and any other scripts that is used by that page should do the trick.

Try setting Firefox as your default browser...that way no matter what link you click on anywhere it should open up in Firefox.   To set it as the default browser click on Tools on the toolbar then options, then on the general tab you'll see default browser. Just hit check now and if it isn't alreay set  go ahead and set it.  Hope this helps.

The about blank page I am guessing your talking about the default page that loads up on internet explorer.\nIf this the case, Open up Internet Explorer, then on the top menu list click Tools, then select Internet Options.\nWhen this Window opens you should see home page, which is defaultly About Blank, if you the type in a web address (ie www.yahoo.co.uk) in the text box and click Apply then Ok you should be sorted
