Please help!
When I connect to the internet and type in a word in the Yahoo search field(tried google and AltaVista) and press enter, I immidiately get the Page Not Found error. But when I bring something back from the Favourites list, it connects normally. Someone, please!

I live in a land where Tech-Help people blame viruses for pop-ups. So, no, I did not call the ISP.

Uhhh... Jorath, his problem isn't the pop-ups, he was using that as a reference to how bad the tech support in his area is.
Bozos, as to your issue, I haven't a clue. Hope you can get it resolved. I wouldn't mind seeing my own issue resolved, but since it doesn't hinder performance, I'm not in the biggest rush.

Try clearing out your internet cache files. All of them! Could be that the return search page is saved as a "page not found" page. Clearing out the cache should take care of that.

Deleted Internet Files and History, but to no avail. I'm growing desperate.

I know it sounds funny, but try typing in http://www.yahoo.com instead of just www.yahoo.com
I have to do that at work, otherwise I get the same issue. Not sure if it's because of a setting they have here at work or a M$ security setting.
