Yahoo Password Possibly Hacked Again?
An interesting happened to me yesterday while I was working. My Yahoo Instant Messenger logged me out and popped up a message that said it logged me off because another machine had logged in with my ID. I was alarmed by this. Had someone hacked my Yahoo password and logged in as me?
Without hesitation I launched Firefox and went to Yahoo to change my password. If my fears were true then I wanted to change my password before the hacker would. As luck would have it this worked.
I don’t know if my account was hacked or not. This could have just been a fluke occurrence. Perhaps a bug in Yahoo Instant Messenger or a blip in my internet connection that triggered the message. But I wasn’t going to take any chances. And neither should anyone else who gets this message without a good reason for it.
