You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html
Reply:Yes, most likely that program was not made by Yahoo and is instead a look-alike program that was made to seem as if it was created by Yahoo. do not download or run any executable files (.exe) from any source that you do not trust. For example, if a "yahoo" program is offered anywhere other than www.yahoo.com, do not trust it.





As far as that program goes, do not try to run it anymore. explorer.exe is the program that allows you to open up folders, view your desktop files, see your taskbar, and so forth. No program should be modifying it.
