"Yahoo! Toolbar would like to access your public profile, friend list and News Feed."
This is an invasion of privacy. How do we stop this. And if other get this also. Should contact Firefox and Yahoo  and tell them to STOP the invasion.

Remove the Yahoo toolbar, via Add or Remove Programs.

If this doesn't work you can also try deleting the Yahoo program folder from your hard drive.

Please report back soon.
