Mediaman Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 I need some help with my Aunt's pc. It seems that MSN is the default search engine, and when I type in Yahoo, it goes back to MSN's home page. How can I stop this? I check the internet properties, but didn't see anything that applies to this problem. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not want to install any other browser as these folks are not pc savy and they need something that they are used to at work or can ask their neighbors for help when we are not around.

I installed Firefox on my wife's PC, hid the IE icon, and she doesn't know the difference. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
