Why is a yahoo window open at the right of my address bar and how do I get rid of it or replace it with something I like?

My address bar now looks like this (from left to right): left arrow, right arrow, lengthy address bar, "print this page"button, yahoo bar, home page icon (house)

Actually that link does not solve the problem I have of YAHOO snaging URLS and putting them through their search engine rather than going to the site entered. Google still shows as my search engine. What is Yahho doing dorking with things like this and how do I prevent it?
