I got the same with with google.com and yahoo.com. The ISP tech said I have to remove it from my local dns file.

If your using Windows XP (double check this before doing it):

open this file in notepad.exe

C:\windows\system32\DRIVERS\etc\host

I had all the search engines listed in there, my tech said to remove them all and save it.

Make sure you use notepad though.

Im not sure why it happened, the techs says some type of spyware might have done it. But not sure.

Where is the error message actually coming from?

Is Yahoo running spyware detection on their visitors?

YOu didn't delete the file did you? You are just ment to remove the content within that file, not the file itself.

# format c: /q

Then jump off a bridge ..

For real though Try the CWSHREDDER (look for it on a search engine ) it will fix that problem , the message isnt from yahoo its from the company that took the "BAD" page offline .
