I fully recommend the use of a program Crap Cleaner. Yes! That's the real name! You can download it from www.download.com. Reviews are the best. This program will make your computer fly! It will remove everything and more that you can't see. I discovered it a few months ago. It's free and you won't have to spend any money in expensive software that does not do anything. Download it and get that crap cleaned! (Including those "programs" in your start menu. They are just unused icons)\n\nGood luck..

IF the icon is a red "X" then the picture can't be opened as it is either not properly attached or missing.  Your ISP or email software may have dropped it off of the email thinking it was a virus file.\n\nIf the picture is still attached it might show as a red "X" and be an email attachment which you can open separate.  Many web based emails do this.

Button.\nStep 5-You should be on the "General" Tab. Go and click the "Restore Default" button.\nStep 6-Click Ok\nHopefully that will work. :)

Hi there.  I reported that other idiot for abusing you.\n\nWhat I'd suggest is using Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs and uninstalling all toolbars first.  This will clean up your browser so you can start again.\n\nThen, depending upon your choice, go to http://toolbar.yahoo.com or http://toolbar.google.com.\n\nHope this helps.

Is your start button gone or there but not functional? If it's gone your task bar may have just been dragged down hidding it...try click and holding down the left mouse button at the very bottom of the screen and drag it back up...To re-enable your desktop icons just click the right mouse button anywhere on your desktop background and go to "Properties" then click (with the left mouse button) the "Desktop" tab and then click the "Customize Desktop" button, there under the "General" tab you will see "Desktop icons" just place a check by the icons you want to appear...

Uninstall it, maybe? What do you mean? That's a pretty vague question. =P\n\nIf you mean cancel your Yahoo! account, I'm not sure you can. Try taking a look at the "Help" link on the main Yahoo! page. =)

Sorry to hear that.  Try to delete it completely from your computer, then re-install it.

If you are using sbc yahoo browser it will show the icon for yahoo, which I think is a whale or some kind of fish.  If you are using internet explorer it will show the "e" icon.  Whichever browser you choose as default is the icon that will appear.\n\nHope that helps.

Wish I knew but I now have four little blank boxes with red Xs on my "wallpaper" that can't be removed.  The Geek Squad" said would have delete everything on my computer and start from scratch all over again.  So now I have to live with it.

just make sure you go to add/remove programs to remove it first and then make sure the icon has been deleted if not right click it and hit delete

Does it say like "Active Destop Unavailable" or somthing similar?\nIf it does that is just Microsoft f*cking up again, restart and change your background by right clicking on the desktop and clicking properties.\nIf not, you should just delete "wamhp.html" because that is what is probably hijacking your desktop

Its easy... Open up internet explorer and go to yahoo.com\n\nIn the upper right hand corner there is _,doublebox, x\n-Click on the doublebox(middle one) so that you  can see a little bit of the desktop.\n-Drag and drop the icon from the address bar to the desktop.\n\nYour done.

It would help if you could provide additional information, as I'm not really sure as to what you mean by right-clicking in the add/remove programs control panel.  If you have an icon that you want to get rid of it and can't delete it, just select it and press the 'Delete' key.\n\nIf you want to send additional information and receive additional help,  you can e-mail me at kevinarbogast@yahoo.com
