Every time I start or open Firefox with Yahoo as Homepage, a banner below the address bar asks me to "Make Yahoo My Homepage". After I select "No, Thanks", nothing changes.

Yahoo, usually pops up a little box in the right top corner and asks me.

See if any of this is in the system : You can look for a file named dsengine.js in these locations. You should only find channel-prefs.js in the "defaults\pref" location. Any file found here apart from channel-prefs.js is suspicious. You can check the content of the file in a text editor (use open with and do not double-click the file).

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\ C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\

You can look for a file named dsengine.cfg in the main Firefox program folder. C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\ Delete the dsengine.js and dsengine.cfg files when present.

If you are clear your going to have to adjust cookies to allow more from Yahoo.

Websites are not allowed to learn your browser settings, so it's normal to see such promotional messages over and over. If it works like Google's when you dismiss the dialog, the site should set a cookie so you don't have to see it again. If you clear cookies for Yahoo, then it would come back.
