Why did my Yahoo Home page change?

All of a sudden the other day, Windows had an update download and afterwards my Homepage changed. Basically, it took the color and background theme away, which kind of acted as a buffer. I have low vision and this stark black & white web page makes it difficult to read. How can I find out which of the Windows Updates changed all this? FYI -- I have tried going into 'Change Appearance' and re-choosing the color I want and theme. I then click on "I am Done", but nothing changes. Does any one have any idea of what is up and how I can get my old page with the color & theme combo back?

Update:

Sorry there is no spyware on my computer. I completely scanned my computer with my regular anti-virus & anti-spayware. I, also, scanned my computer with Malwarebytes. Nothing came up with either. There has to be a glitch in Internet Explorer 8. I am looking where to go in and change my Yahoo Home page back to what it was.

Update 2:

Dear For Help:

The area you are talking about, I have the same thing that was there before the change that is: my.yahoo.com

Thanks though For UR Help
