Why does Yahoo! Help run me around in circles?

Yahoo has been bugging me for the past two days, I keep getting popups for the new Yahoo toolbar, when I finally breakdown and say yes, another window pops up and tells me that they can't load it on my machine. So I go to yahoo help(I have very little experience on computers), and then the mess really starts,I already have the yahoo toolbar. I don't want another one, I do, however, want to change to some more useful buttons, but I don't have the settings button on my toolbar, or I don't know what it looks like. I've been to yahoo help three times today and each time I've come away so frustrated I Have to walk away. Can someone please help me ?

    You don't say if it's the new toolbar, or the old toolbar. If it's the new one. The settings button, is the one that is your avatar. Click on this, and a drop down appears. Click on, show text on buttons. This will tell you what the buttons are. To add/remove buttons, click on your avatar(settings), click add/edit buttons, then click on the button gallery tab. From there, you can add/remove buttons to your toolbar.

    If you have the old toolbar, click on the pencil. From there you can add/remove buttons.

    Click the green square button, then click show text. Then enter add/edit and put what you want on the bar. Change the layout top/first, next/second and so on in that order. Save your changes and exit.
