How Do You Restore The Yahoo Search Engine Functions After It Was Affected By A Virus ?

I want to know how the Yahoo Search Engine can be restored to normal when a spyware and/or other viruses affected the system. I have been downloading some anti-spyware programs, such as Spybot, to reverse the effects and I want to know what applications I can used to turn the search engine back to normal. I have my Yahoo Search Engine results mixed with different web addresses. Thanks.

    I had the same problem a few weeks ago and i fixed it without installing anything. It’s a virus called “go.google”. I tried installing stuff and still didn’t work. The next steps worked for me so I guess this is the best way.
    Go to Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > View > Show Hidden Devices.
    Scroll down to “Non-plug and Play Drivers” and click the plus icon to open those drivers.
    Then search for “TDSSserv.sys”
    Right click on it, and select “Disable”
    Note: If you select Uninstall, it will install itself again when you reboot the system, so DON’T select Uninstall.
    Restart your pc.
    You can now update your Antirus/Malware/Rootkit softwares and the go.google rubbish will stop.
    Hope this helps as much as it helped me. That virus is REALLY annoying. = )
