Try doing this..... Start Menu.... run........ type "ms config"   Look in there for it... careful not to change to much stuff. And if you cant find it. Go Start ........ Control Pannel...... Add/Remove Software...... then look there.. if you see nothing try installing again and make sure that the disk is compatable with your computer.... good luck

I'm pretty sure this is done automatically when you install Microsoft AntiSpyware tool, but I can't figure out how to turn it off (:-().\n\nIf you have Microsoft AntiSpyware installed, go to the Advanced Tools section to change your home page.

All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.\n\nAVG Removes I-Worm/Stration · BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC · Worm/Generic.FX · Exploit.WMF\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nSpybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\n\nhttp://superantispyware.com/\nSUPERAntiSpyware is the most thorough scanner on the market. Our Multi-Dimensional Scanning and Process Interrogation Technology will detect spyware that other products miss! SUPERAntiSpyware will remove ALL the Spyware, NOT just the easy ones!\nEasily remove over 100,000 pests such as SmitFraud, Vundo, WinFixer, SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, WinAntiVirus, AntiVermins and thousands more!\nMake sure after you download any of these, that you update them.\n\n *Be sure to come back to Yahoo Q&A and vote for one of the answers as best answer!\n\n\n\nRemove virus burst\nhttp://www.yourtechonline.com/art08.php

Frank, you will have to be a little more specific about the type of antispyware you are using and what you are trying to accomplish with it.\n   If you are trying to start your scan, hit the start button, the program should come with a help button and go to tutorial and it will explain the set up and operation of your anti spyware.  If you are having trouble starting your scan just uninstall the program and reinstall it.

Its either been disabled (you can check by clicking view and toolbars), or you have too many toolbars up, or its been dragged up out of site (in which case you can place your cursor at the bottom of tool bars until you see an arrow and click and hold, drag it down) or, you have a toolbar hijacker and you will need to remove it with adware removal tools. If its been jacked, it may have come with some software you downloaded and this software will also need to be uninstalled!

Yahoo Toolbar has anti-spyware built-in.\n\nMicrosoft also has an anti-spyware beta you can try.\n\nI use both.

I know what to do.  Obviously the toolbar is hidden so you can't see it.  In order to fix this problem click "Tools."  Then click on "Toolbars."  You will get a list of toolbars.  Click on "Yahoo! Toolbar."  The toolbar should reappear again.  Use this method if your toolbar disappears again.

Right click somewhere on the menu-bar. Then uncheck "yahoo Toolbar" this will make the toolbar disappear until you check it again.\n\nTo remove it permanently. Go to add/remove programs in the control panel. Uninstall yahoo toolbar there. That's it

you can download free  antispy     Adaware or yahoo antispy

You should use both the mentioned before, Adaware and Spybot: S&D. Then manually change it back to yahoo.\n\nFor protection in the future use: Firefox, Spyware Blaster, Windows Defender, ZoneAlarm Personal Firewall.

Check to make sure it's still on your computer.  Go to start, control panel, then add/remove programs.  Is it on the list of programs?  If not, you may have to reinstall it.  Have you tried restarting your computer?  Try that first.

It's actually a yAssist and is part of the Yahoo Toolbar.\n\nUninstall the toolbar (control panel, add and remove programs) and try to download it and install it again.  If you are still having the issue you will have to uninstall it again and do without.\n\nYahoo seems to be having some issues with the yAssist that they have yet to provide a fix for.

You have a hijacker program on your computer. Do your Virus and spyware scans. I also recommend you use the free scan and removal tools available on the net.\n\nGo to the Yahoo Anti-spy toolbar forum and post a thread.\n\nFirst go to this site and learn about this bad guy. If you'll take the time to read it you'll learn alot about getting rid of it. After this then go to the Anti-spy toolbar forum.

Sounds like you have an activate spyware keylogger on your computer most internet service providers have antispyware programs to help get rid of spyware, adware, and other types of malware. This toolbar provided by yahoo has antispyware while it doesn't catch everything it does help. \nhttp://toolbar.yahoo.com/

Would suggest doing a search for a program called "Adaware" which is a free spyware removal tool.\n\nAlso look into downloading the newest version of Yahoo! Companion toolbar with the Pop-up blocker AND Anti-Spy spyware search feature.\n\nLook into purchasing a virus scan program that detects spyware (most of them do now a days) and also you'll want a firewall if you do a lot of online searching and shopping, this stops a lot of spyware.\n\nAlso look into downloading the Mozilla Firefox web browser. It's an amazing alternative to Internet Explorer. Firefox is faster, safer, and has loads of more features built right in INCLUDING spyware protection and pop-up blocking.\n\n\nSimply put, if's it's not a spyware problem. The Yahoo Companion toolbar catches 95% of them for me, and that would the simplest solution. But you may already be using that as your pop-up blocker.
