Spigot software was installed on my computer. I unistalled it. Firefox now opens with a Yahoo homepage search option -spigot. I tried to get rid of it but the address just resets itself. I have scanllined my computer in the order of AdW cleaner, malewrebytes, OTl, and aswMBR and will attach their reports.
Try this and let me know if it works
