How do I delete my yahoo page?

How can I get rid of an unsolicited tool bar? If a tool bar appears on a Yahoo mail page, how can I delete it?

  • A "MIRAR" tool bar suddenly appears on Yahoo mail page with disastrous consequenses on my use of the page, with wild flow of advertising pages covering my working space and blocking other activities on the page, and I need help to find a way to delete it. Yahoo spy blocker does not seam to have a control. Any help, please. Bankole.

  • Answer:

    click START> CONTROL PANEL> ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS look under the prgrammes installed, you should see MIRAR or another toolbat that look unfamiliar. if you can't find it, tick "show Updates" at the top, then once you find it, clik remove (or change/remove) Also download an anti-spyware software, such as A-Squared or Spybot: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/ http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

look at add ons for your browser and disallow it from there if all else fails

Go to add/remove in the control panel and take it out. Use anti spy if needed.

Add or remove programs "will not" get rid of Mirar. Do what one of the guys already said, install Spybot, a-squared, Lavasoft ad-aware or whatever. Anti-spy won't get rid of it either.

Click on VIEW and on the drop down menu you can close whatever toolbars you wish

click start , click set program access , click change or remove , find it and delete , if that does not work remove yahoo completely the same way , then d/load it again

Don't bother with add or remove programs. Mirar toolbar is spyware and you need an anti-spyware program to fully remove the malware. Download/install the free version of SuperAntiSpyware from superantispyware.com, update the definitions and run a full scan. The full scan examines the entire hard drive and can take an hour or two which is normal. Spybot S&D and Lavasoft Adaware 2007 are also good anti-spyware programs and will remove Mirar.
