Recently, I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader update. I am not sure if it is related to the problem. For years, I've run Mozilla Firefox and I prefer it to IE. Suddenly, I find that after booting-up, my homepage has been "hijacked" to show the Mosilla Firefox start page, even though my control panel shows my homepage to be yahoo. ( I DID select Yahoo.) How can I get rid of Mozilla Firefox wanting to show itself FIRST? This always happens, starting just in the past two days or so. It's as if Mozilla Firefox has decided: "Yes, you chose Yahoo for your homepage, but I don't care. I want you to be shown OUR page before anything else." It defeats the purpose of selecting a homepage. I'd welcome a solution to this problem!

Just to be sure: In the preferences you do have "Show my homepage" enabled parallel to the yahoo URL visible in the box?
