Why is yahoo my default search engine?

If it keeps changing on its own there is some type of add-on doing it. For example the Yahoo toolbar.

For Internet Explorer other than version 9
Click the down arrow in the search box in the upper right.
Select Manage Search Providers.
Change the default.
Find More Providers should bring you to a list where you can add more to the list.

For Internet Explorer version 9
Start typing the search term into the URL box.
Click on the icon for the default in the dropdown.

For Firefox
Type about:config into the URL box.
Type keyword.url into filter
Double click on the parameter to change
For Google use this parameter
http://www.google.com/search?q=
For Yahoo use this parameter
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=
For Bing use this parameter
http://www.bing.com/search?q=

I believe that if the parameter is blank it defaults to Google.

How do I stop my default search engine from changing without my consent?

2 things can cause this:
1) Yahoo has installed a plugin on your computer
to remove it go into the web browser, click Tools, Add-ons and finally Plugins
if you find something called yahoo.... disable it and restart your browser

2) You have downloaded something from the internet that had an option for setting your homepage to yahoo (to avoid these pb in the futurem just pay attention to the Wizard and choose the Custom Installation always)

There are 2 ways: either you search in C in both Program Files and Windows for a file with the yahoo name in it that is suspicious (other than Msn Messenger or Yahoo!)

or go to Control Panel / Add Remove Programs and again search for a yahoo file and remove it

I had the same problem. My mozilla reset the homepage to bearshare. I opened Control Panel/remove programs and found an exe file Bearshares. After I removed it it worked like a charm
