Yahoo constantly takes over my web  searches.  Can webroot remove yahoo/ treat it as a virus for removal?
Hi tgrapes

 

Welcome to the Community Forums.

 

Is this with just a particular browser?  If so which one?  Also have you tried the same searches under another browser?

 

The issue is most likely just a case of going into the Tools/Settings of the browser(s) that you use and changing the default search engine to be the search engine that you want to use.

 

Please advise back on the questions posed.

Should have mentioned it's Chrome.   Have already tried your suggestion as well as others...

Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!

 

I'm a Yahoo user so doing a Chrome reset fix your issue also you would have to set it up again as you like it? As everything is fine here!

 

Thanks,

Thank-you Daniel.  This happened a while back and that didn't work for some reason.  Anyway THANKS.  
@ Did you try a clean reinstall of Chrome? Here to Download https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html and if your system is 64bit install it as the Web Filter and the extensions work well on it as I use the 64bit version of Chrome! https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html?platform=win64 if that doesn't help then Submit a Support Ticket and they will get you sorted!

 

Thanks,

 

Daniel 😉
