If you have saved a homepage and it's returning to "About:Blank" then it's likely you have spyware.\n\nIf it is spyware, here are a few items you can download to rid yourself of it, and they are all free:\n\nYahoo toolbar - toolbar.yahoo.com\nMicrosoft Windows Defender - microsoft.com, and look for it\nAd-Aware - ad-aware.com\nSpybot Search and Destroy - download.com\n\nSpyware tries to get you to search using their search engines, might change your homepage, might look for personal information about you, or at worse, will have a key logger to watch each key you hit and then send that information to someone else.

You might have adware/spyware.  If any search results or homepages change without you changing them yourself, it's usually a good sign of an adware/spyware infection.  To remove it, try downloading, installing, and running these programs: Ad-aware: http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/\nSpybot search and destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html\nWindows Defender (if you have windows XP or 2000): http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx\nSpycatcher Express (if you have windows XP or 2000): http://www.tenebril.com/consumer/spyware/spycatcher-express.php

I only get the new yahoo page if I use my Internet Explorer browser. If I use my Netscape browser, I get the old one. I think the new one is ok, but I'm not really crazy about it. I'm just used to the old one.

The version of yahoo you have doesn't really have anything to do with what kind of internet service you have.\nHowever, when you installed the new version of yahoo, it overwrites the older version. So you don't need to remove anything.

Yahoo! is testing a new home page on randomly selected users. It is only temporary. You should get the current home page back in a day or two. If you can't wait, look for the link at the bottom of the page to revert to the current home page.

You might have browser caching enabled and that could be the cause. Go to Tools->Internet Options.  Then on the general tab under Temporary Internet Files, Click Settings. Then set the set the "Check for new versions of pages" setting to one of the first three options. Automatically should be sufficient.

It also may be because of your home computer settings. Clear your cache and refresh the page, you might see the change.

Here are the quick links to switch between Yahoo's new and old home pages,\n\n"Preview the all-new Yahoo! home page" http://www.yahoo.com/r/vp\nThis appears in the upper right hand corner of the old homepage\n\n"Switch to old page" http://www.yahoo.com/r/vq\nThis appears in the upper left hand corner of the new homepage\n\nYou can use the old page, but you may want to get used to the new one.  Eventually, it will probably be the only choice.  :-(

on your interenet browser right click, check properties. on the general tab verify if the home page shows something either than yahoo. if so, change it back to yahoo.com. then select to clear history.  delete cookies and delete files.  if this does not work.. check for a trojan.  that is really what this is more so than a virus.  \n\nhope this helps.

This is because of the browser's "home page" setting. Depending on the browser, try selecting Tools | Internet Options. There should be an entry for "Home page". On the one computer, it is set to http://www.yahoo.com. Usually, you can enter a URL or you can press a button to use the current page. If you use IE, Netscape, Firefox, etc. the procedure differs a little bit, but essentially the same.

You probably have a spyware on you comp. or you dont have enough rights to do it, like  if you're using it in school, or probalby you have a home page protection software which wont let you change your homepage.

The new home page is a BETA and will expire 1 week from once you received it. To revert back to the old, clear your cookies via Tools / Internet Options / Delete Cookies.\n\nIn the meantime send yahoo some feedback saying that it is too big for your monitor.
