Do you have the little box checked, where you sign in, that says remember my ID? If so uncheck it.

YahooMail opens when I enter a password.......

Thanks for the suggestions, but I think I am not stating my problem correctly. when I am on the internet, and I go to my bank website and enter my password to get in, another window opens up with yahoo mail. This happens even when I goto a website that I have to enter my zip code or anything like that. It never says that it sent a mail, But it opens up that page. Does this sound like a virus?

Please help...
