    It happens on every web site. It popups and yahoo starts searching for keyword 1%file:///C:/temp/%251%20-%20Yahoo!%20Search%20Results.htm

    hang on stephie. I'm going to consult with another person on this one. I'm not sure what's causing it.
    Meanwhile, go to c:\temp and delete everything that's in there.. it's a temp dir so you don't need anything in it.

    Also, do you have any extensions for firefox installed?

    Well I have the ones I used with Explorer, It's not the same? or do I have to download new ones?

    Yahoo pops up? Do you have SBC dialup or SBC DSL?
