Nope, I haven't see like this before but in my Yahoo email, while trying to login, I get many weird messages. Something I have never seen in 15 years while I used Yahoo.

It's an excellent new feature of Yahoo. The websites displayed usually might contain some malware or adware programs that are harmful to computers.

The new feature from Yahoo! search is called Search Scan (by McAfee) that helps protect web users from viruses, spyware and spam making it safe to search online

I don't use Yahoo so I wouldn't know, but it sounds like a pretty nice feature.
