You could always log in to your yahoo account and chose a new password. Make sure this one has a little complexity to it. For that matter you should be changing in once a month or so.

How can you know if your yahoo account password has been cracked in case the cracker doesn't change it or manipulate any other data relevant to your account(for instance after reading your mails marks them
as unread,etc)? My suggestion would be to avoid using a Yahoo account for anything that requires security. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
