How do I remove a page listing from Yahoo? And how long could it stay in search results after the search term has been deleted from page?

Well the first thing to do is kill it on your server.

I do not quite understand your question. If you were asking how to remove a page from Yahoo! search results I think this article would be helpful.

Actually I would recommend changing the page and keeping the url, its more likely than not to get crawled and re-indexed quicker than it will get dropped because the engine isn't crawling it.

Remove the content! No content .... no crawling....no page listing.

If you remove the content it will definitely removed from Yahoo and other SE's too.

This is true, but if you remove it, it may actually be accessible through the cache for some period of time until the spiders realize the page is gone. If you change it, the page will get re-indexed much quicker. I've been through this before and have done it both ways.
