yahoo mail

[Layni]

I've been trying to read my emails, or at least see who they're from but everytime I try clicking on inbox another page comes up. It's a microsoft look up page. How can I stop this from happening?

Hope someone else can help on this one. I don't have Yahoo Mail, don't think I've ever even looked at it. I'll look tomorrow night when my GF is around. She uses Yahoo Mail, she might be able to help. If its a true Microsoft lookup, then I guess its not some spyware like I thought it was when I gave it the first read over.

I was wrong it doesn't say microsoft in the address box it says about: blank If that helps.

It is spyware or adware, if your not running them you can get them here
Spybot Seazrch and Destroy freeware with constant updates. They guy does it for free but requests donations.

Adware also free

IF your already using these programs make sure you update to the newest detections.

Good luck and happy popup killing

Like evl0ne said it sounds like Spyware. I use Yahoo Mail and my pop up blocker catches most of the ads that appear, but then I remembered I hadn't checked my machine for spyware for a while....did it, and I've no pop ups since.
