HELP!!! How do I stop Yahoo Search from appearing on every new tab I open???
Whenever I click on the "new tab" icon, it opens the new tab, but the new tab is ALWAYS the Yahoo search engine. If i start typing the URL I want, as I did before, it puts it in the search window instead of the address block.

You need to update some of your plugins. The following plugins have known security issues. You can see a list of the plugins reported with your post by clicking "More system details..." to the right of your original question.
