When browsing, a Yahoo popup often appears asking to add a yahoo extension. I do not want the extension but that option is not given. All I can do is close the popup only to have it reappear a few clicks later. How do I get this popup to stop? I have the 'block popups' box checked in preferences.

Thanks for the reply FredMcD. Followed your instructions. There are no Yahoo extensions on my Mac. Also, I scan regularly with Clam xav. Ran full scan today with no malware found. I am wondering whether it is Mozilla/Yahoo thing to badger users until they load the extension or if it is a link to a blackhole exploit site. In any case I will not click on the link. If I can't resolve this I will have to switch to a different browser.
