Mr Steve-
I am NOT particularly tech savvy and some of the approaches in this thread for getting rid of the damn Yoog were totally over my head... also the files they were telling me look for were nowhere to be found. I had another problem, too, which was a whole lot of "sponsored ads" appearing on search engines, like google and wikipedia, and taking up way more of the page than they are supposed to. I thought maybe those things and Yoog were related but wasn't sure. In any case I followed your very straightforward directions from start to finish (opting not to keep my old bookmarks, however) and Yoog is gone, as are all those super annoying ads. So all of the spyware purging really did the trick. I registered on this forum purely to say thanks a million from a lay person for your tech support...
