    Heres a brian buster.....

    I have a yahoo email account, wed night I came home and tried to log on to it and it said my password was invalid. I do all the security steps and change my password and I can log in. A few hours later, IT HAPPENS AGAIN!!

    I don't know whats going on.

    Any ideas?

    that happened to me before. apparently what happened in my case is that i would sometimes forget to log out or my internet connection would fail. i guess some hacker was able to lift my password and change it to his convenience. Its good that the prick forgot to change my secret question and i was able to change my password. Coz of that i periodically change password and secret questions.

    I think spoon hit the nair right on the head. The only other way is for someone else that uses your pc is logging in as you when you either forget to logout or tell yahoo email to remember you or tell windows to remember your password and then they change it.
