Right so I recently discovered and then (hopefully) fixed an issue I had where my Chrome browser was being hijacked to switch my default search engine to Yahoo.
The only question I'm left with is, why would someone make that?
There's no way Yahoo is in the business of creating or contracting the creation of malware, they're a huge company with a lot to lose.
**So why would some random third party create malware specifically to direct traffic to Yahoo???**
Maybe I just dont get it cause I'm a layman, but it's still interesting/weird.
