Hi, John.  I still got a slow connection after unchecking the search button.  
Is there something else I can try?  I used to have google as my home page at 
one time.  Is there a way to get ride of your past home page if you don't want 
it anymore?  Just wondering.

  Hi Rosemarie, don't worry about yahoo. The toolbar you need to change is in 
internet explorer. When you're in Internet Explorer just press the alt key to 
take you to the menus, and cursor right to the view menu. the toolbar submenu 
is the top item in the view menu. cursor down till you find the explorer bar 
submenu and right cursor to open it. The top item is search. If that says 
checked press the enter key to uncheck it. When you've done that it'll be fine.
    Let me know how you get on,
                      John.

    Hi, John.  I have a problem with yahoo which is my home page.  How do I 
find the tool bar to uncheck the search so I can have a faster connection to 
the internet?  I have DSL so i should be able to connect to the internet pretty 
fast.

      Hi everybody, re the post earlier today regarding the seeming hijack of 
the internet explorer home page it isn't a hijacker, it's just a changed 
toolbar setting. it's easily solved. I had the same thing happen to me. All you 
have to do is to go to the toolbars submenu and uncheck search on the explorer 
bar menu. When you've done that everything should be fine.
                          John.
