It is part of Yahoo search protecton It says Yahoo has diabled aprogram that attempted to change your default search engine. How can I keep this from popping up continually.

It’s easy to fix. Uninstall your Y! toolbar and then re-install. The important part is to uncheck the box during the install that says make Yahoo! my default search engine and protect any changes (I’m para-phrasing). Yahoo always uses their search engine when you search from the Y! toolbar and you can set up your default IE search engine (under IE 7 or IE by using the options in the search box to the right of the address bar. That way you won’t be hounded (which is a good thing) by Yahoo whenever you change your search engine.
