Yahoo invasion in Chrome

Some more ideas:

1. Check for any Chrome extensions causing the problem.
2. Try setting Chrome to defaults if you haven't done this.
3. Search the Registry for instances of "Yahoo" and try and work out what is loading it.
4. Install Autoruns and search for Yahoo to see if anything is loading it.

And/or here.

Remove Us.yhs4.search.yahoo.com redirect (Virus Removal Guide)

If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or it can't be removed there, move on to step 2. You might be able to skip the step with HitmanPro. (30 day free trial if needed)
