Re: [ilugd] OT: ahoo toolbar spyware...

Hi Folks...
My Mozilla browser earlier had a Google search toolbar--- and suddenly,
overnight, it got replaced by a yahoo! toolbar-- without my doing anything.

I dont have any yahoo messenger on this comp; nor did I ever consent to
adding a yahoo toolbar.

Seems in it's desperation, yahoo has lost some of it's ethics.


Anyone have a similar experience ?


Not speaking on behalf of Yahoo here, but this seems to be Mozilla that
you are talking about, and not IE. Never heard of anything yet being
installed on its own in Mozilla (Firefox?). I am assuming you are
talking about a Windows machine too. Are you sure you haven't installed
any software recently, which could have possibly have the toolbar
bundled?
