Download LSPfix from here
On the opening screen, click the "I know what I'm doing" checkbox, then click Finish.
==
Download the HostsXpert.
Run it and press "Restore Original Hosts" and press "OK". Exit Program.
Note that if you have a custom host file, this will remove it.
==
Download HijackThis from here. Once downloaded, double click on the file & it will install into it's own, permanent folder.
Start HJT & press the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. When the scan is finished a window will pop up giving you the option of where to save it. Save it to desktop where it is easy to access. Open the log file and copy the entire contents of the file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is necessary for the running of your system.

You never followed the link I gave you for hijackthis, hence you have installed the Beta version. Please get rid of that one and download the correct version.
Can you please do the following.
===============
Scan with HijackThis and then place a check next to all the following, if present:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://uk.red.clientapps.yahoo.com/c...o/bt_side.html
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://uk.red.clientapps.yahoo.com/c...rch.yahoo.com/

Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".
