How to setup this YARPP Plugin?

When installing YARPP (Yet Another Related Posts Plugin), it asks to do the following:

YARPP's "consider titles" and "consider bodies" relatedness criteria require your wp_posts table to use the MyISAM storage engine, but the table seems to be using the InnoDB engine. These two options have been disabled.
To restore these features, please update your wp_posts table by executing the following SQL directive: ALTER TABLE `wp_posts` ENGINE = MyISAM; . No data will be erased by altering the table's engine, although there are performance implications.
If, despite this check, you are sure that wp_posts is using the MyISAM engine, press this magic button:

    wp_posts table is InnoDB by default. InnoDB and MyISAM types are very different database engines. Although, the plugin message say that "this will not brake anything", I do not recommend modify core database tables... Even if it's ok for now, your site may brake after you update wordpress future.
    Plugin developer must adapt himself to wordpres, but it seems that he want to adapt wordpress to himself.
    There are a lot of related post plugins, try others..
    Or if you have enough information, you may edit plugin database, and change myisam to innodb. Probably this error will be fixed.
