This is the frist I have heard of this. I have yahoo e-mail but I have not been hacked into. I have good security for my internet so I am not too worried.

Just went through a handful of password changes today. I try to change them every 6 months or so.

I would advice that you change your password every 2 months... Most of the hackers would get your Email account just for a day or an hour... ^_^

i dont think it was hacked this sounds more like a virus, first i would reccomend your friend email yahoo and ask them if they are aware of any thing strange on his account. i have a blog about avoiding scams and fake emails etc, the link is on my profile...follow and enjoy

My yahoo mail has been hacked by I do not know whom, it has been one year since it happened, it was so frustrating because I had many important mails in that and there were beautiful messages too which I had saved. Now I think all I have to to change my password regularly.

wooooo it's alarming...thank you for the reminder..I always thought that the hackers will mess up with the targets only and not randomly pick their victims..however, as a prevention step, all of us should do as you suggested and beware of anything weird on the web...thanks again JuniX25..
