yum install command point me to a local directory

OP: Centos 6.5

I installed a third party software. Since then, when I am using yum command, the system, pointing me to a local directory. It seems yum pointing to a local repository.

Is there a way to fix it.

Did the third party software modify either /etc/yum.conf or /etc/yum.repos.d/?

Code:
yum repolist
to 'target' local repo, then look in /etc/yum.repos.d/

You can either delete the .repo file for the local entry or use one of the techiques discussed at http://www.if-not-true-then-false.co...po-repository/
