im wondering if someone got my account info on my yahoo email. when I try to log in it says your password doesnt match even though im positive its correct. and then i have to change my password to login to my email. the only way you can change the password is if you either know the original password or you know my info(birthday etc) and the answer the the question.

so if someone got my information(which pisses me off if they did) how can i change it on that

You can email yahoo to get your password sent to a different email account. then you can change it. Thats what sux about FREE email accounts...that stuff always happens.

That sucks. I know that I have siblings that would do stuff like that.

But how would cookies have anything to do with having the wrong password?:confused:

i pay 23 dollars a month for aol. it did come in hand one day. somehow someone got a hold of my sn password. in a matter of 2 minutes they were able to send out close to 450 emails from my screen name. aol notified me of this changed my password until i called to get my new passwords. so it pays to pay for aol cause they got your back.

thanks for the free passes to six flags great adventure aol.

have you been sending spam? sometimes h4x0rs will hack your account so you can't send anymore. Question 2: Have you pissed anyone off? they have pop3 password decrypters floating all over the net. They are so easy to use, a 3 year old could do it. just click a button and it goes. well, hope you can get into your account again.
