Bleach not worked as I expected

I am so glad that I used some old socks to test the bleach I just brought instead of the expansive shirt I intended to use the bleach with. Somehow for all the socks I used bleach with, they all turned to some yellowish color. I read some web site and they explained that as "over bleached", which to me it sounds a bit strange because I only soaked them for a short while, and I already diluted the bleach before I put in the soaks.

Some site suggested using OxiClean to remove stink instead of using old fashion bleach, so I'll give it a try when I have time to get to Traget to get some OxiClean product.
