Typical story...
Friend shows up and loads Yahoo on my computer so they can do...
Anyway, removed the programs, etc. but, when I highlight then right click and scroll down to "search the web", Yahoo search still comes up.
How can I change it back to Google?
I'm running XP home and Firefox.
Thanks,
T

OK, I'm an idiot.

I'm still lost.

Can someone walk me through it?


Please.

At the top of your screen is "File  Edit   View  Favorites    TOOLS   Help

Pick TOOLS


Under Tools pick Internet Options

A box should pop up and at the top of the General tab should be Homepage


Simply change this to read www.google.com and click OK.

This is a good example of why permissions and a guest user account are good.
