  1. I have been having this problem too.  After futile attempts to detect the problem using various  popular tools like Adaware, AVG, Norton, etc; SmitFraudFix v2.300 came to my rescue.  It detected that my machine had been a victim of DNS Hijack: 85.255.x.x.  This basically alters DNS settings in "Internet Protocol Version 4" on your network adaptor from "Obtain DNS Server Address Automatically" to a custom IP address like 85.255.x.x.  

    I manually corrected this and now Yahoo results behave normally.  

    In fact this problem occurs with almost all search engine results - not just with Yahoo! search.

    Hope this helps.
