If your browser’s search engine keeps changing to search.yahoo.com, you are probably being targeted by a browser hijacker. The best way to beat this is by removing useless browser extensions and changing the default search engine of your browser.

If you want to use Chrome or Bing but your search engine keeps changing to Yahoo, it may be due to a type of malware called a browser hijacker. Yahoo is a legitimate search engine, but if your search bar changes to Yahoo without your input, then that’s a red flag.
