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. ʎəɿʞɹɐq ̊ ͜͡● ̊

What the hell is Profile Engine?
In spite of what chris14679 says, Google and Bing and the others do not make a mirror of all your Facebook info! Looking at the Profile Engine site, it seems to me that they're not tryin' very hard to be reached, either, I noticed (no customer service page, phone number, etc.). The company is based in New Zealand, so unfortunately there's no BBB that can be brought in on your side. In light of that, I'd do the following: 1) make sure you send a complaint to Facebook; 2) use the WHOIS information for the domain and contact the Profile Engine and request deletion in writing and cc a third party witness, such as an attorney or even a friend; 3) read the NZ privacy law information at http://privacy.org.nz/how-to-complain/ and download/complete/submit the complaint form; 4) go to the Consumer NZ website and contact them so see if they can help. Also, as the company appears to be an incubator of the Auckland University of Technology, you might contact them too and see if they're able to help you. It's a lot of work and inconvenience to deal with, but maybe if enough people protest companies like this the genie can be put back into the bottle. Def don't trust them, and be prepared to keep checking back to see if your info is finally gone and stays gone. Good luck!
