Has someone laid hands on my password.?

Question

Any time I log on to check my email my Yahoo! messenger window goes off and another window appears on the screen of my computer that I ha been disconnected from chat because I have signed into Yahoo! Messenger from another computer or device.

Does anybody have this experience or I am alone. Is somebody fraudulently logging into my account using my password? And how did this happened? I need some answers people otherwise I am going to stop using YAHOO.

How can Yahoo help trace this person.

Answer 1

I would log on and change my password that way the password they have is no longer valid.

Answer 2

I would change my password if I was you.

Answer 3

l had something like that happen to me. First l want to customize my avatar and the window pop up saying l am using a different operating system.

They try to rout me to MAC

Well, l did not have no mac but yet they said l did/ and windows would not update for me.

l do not know what caused this.l download a free trail of Tuneup Utility 2008. And l ran the repair windows and it was back to working ok. But l need to change my password because l thought they or who ever got my password

When Yahoo finish with their transition , we will have one password and user name to log in on all yahoo services, this will help knock hackers out.

Answer 4
