What is this? Is this a protection from Yahoo or a phishing? Does somebody else have this?

Protect users on this computer against password theft with a sign-in seal.
A sign-in seal is a secret message or photo that Yahoo! will display on this computer only. Look for it every time you sign in to make sure you're on a genuine Yahoo! site. If the message, photo, or colors are different, you may have landed on a phishing site.

It is a new feature from Yahoo. It is being rolled out slowly so only few lucky users have it. Others who want to make use of it can directly go to the link.
