RE: How to secure my yahoo account

["J. Yoon" <supercool9000 () hotmail com>]

If the cracker is communicating with you over your email account, then most 
liikely:

1. VANITY: from the very fact that he's gone to the extent of sending you 
messages, it's obvious that he wants others to know how "good" he is.

2. Claims he bruteforced his way into it?  I'd say he's full of it, unless 
he's *really* good
which in this case sounds like he's not.

3. See if you can embed some sort of identification image/tag next time you 
send him an email message so that you can get more info about him and 
possibly his isp.
But first you might wanna enable your yahoo account to allow these tags to 
show up.
