When I have a search request on yahoo, a company called area connect hijacks my search how can I remove it?

Answer 1

I don't know if this will help or not, but I had a problem with a thing called "outerinfo" popping up everytime i'd do a search....then one day I spotted it in "my computer" under  "add and remove programs" I simply clicked on remove and it went away....hope that helps you I know how frustrating that stuff can be....good luck!

Answer 2

Open add/remove in the control panel. Remove it if it is there. If not, hit tools above and enter manage add ons. Disable it if you can find it. A registry cleaner can get it out if you have no anti spy program scan to run.
