Why is Yahoo hijacking my Audible Purchases Page?
When I go to Audible and I check my purchases, every time I check "My Books", it opens the page for a second and then takes me to a Yahoo page entitled "z ecx image amazon build inc audible" at the following link: https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/errorhandler?hspart=gt&hsimp=yhse-gt&q=z-ecx.images-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FG%2F01%2FAudible%2Fen_US%2Finca%2Fcss%2Fbuild&type=692858
I already removed Yahoo as a Search Engine choice. Why is this happening?
I hate hate hate Yahoo.

In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Remove yahoo Anything. Now do the same in the computers Programs Folder.
Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. Linux: Check your user manual.
After the problem is fixed, Bookmark and use this; Download the Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.

You're infected! Macs get malware, too.
If you scroll to the bottom of that page and click "Learn More", you'll see instructions for removing this problem caused by "MyBrowserBar" from Internet Explorer on Windows. For Firefox on Mac, go to the Add-ons page as mentioned by Fred and clean out (or at least disable) ALL unknown, nonessential, and other useless extensions. Names may be deceiving. Bear in mind that Firefox does not include any extensions when you download it, they are all optional.
Hopefully that will flush it.
