A couple of things to check;
Run a rootkit scan,
Check your connection settings for a fixed DNS server address - it should be set to automatic,
Look in the windows 'hosts' file for a redirect
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_(file) .
There may also be some BS Yahoo thing install itself into your IE add-ins.
You're looking for a 'redirect' problem, plenty of info out there.
