    I'm using Firefox, and normally with Firefox you can just type in what you want in the address bar and it will take you right to the site. For example, if I want Spurstalk.com all I have to do is type in something like "Spurs Talk" and it takes me right to the site....anyway, I downloaded Yahoo messenger and now all of a sudden when I do that it just searches it on Yahoo. How can I get it back to the way it is supposed to be?

    Uninstall Yahoo, for starters. Make sure whenever you install a program that you uncheck ANYTHING it's asking you to install that you don't want. It probably installed the "yahoo bar" into your firefox. Try this:

    Right Click on the Spurstalk logo next to your location. That's just to the left of where you see this: http://spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=133595

    There should be a Spurstalk logo there. Right click that and see if there's a Yahoo bar that you can uncheck.

    Bing isn't the problem.

    IE is. It sucks.
