Try deleting the bookmark for Yahoo and then create a new one. I would also try deleting the Cookies and Temporary Internet Files. These steps may not clear the problem but it is an easy thing to do and so worth a try. Clearing Cookies and Temporary Internet Files will mean that you need to re-enter login details for any sites that need them though (such as FunTrivia).
One likely cause is that a site you have visited recently has overwritten your browser preferences. This is known as 'browser hijacking', which falls within the general subject of spyware. To cure this, download the free version of
Ad-aware. Run the program and see what recommendations it comes up with.
Unfortunately, curing this sometimes means modifications within the registry.
