Steps To Delete Yahoo! Search From Your PC

Yahoo! Search is a program that makes an index of the files that are present on your computer after the program is installed in your computer. This will allow the user to search that index of the programs from the Windows taskbar. After using the program, you may find out that it consumes too much of the display and you may wish to use it in a more stripped down mode.
