Not being able to access your Yahoo! account is frustrating.
If someone has broken into your account and changed your password, or if you have forgot your password, you may be temporarily unable to access your Yahoo! account.
Fortunately, Yahoo! offers a solid password recovery process that allows you to retrieve your password and log in to your account within a few minutes.
Visit your Yahoo! log in page.
Beneath the sign in box, click "I Can't Access My Account."
Select "I Forgot My Password" and click "Next."
Type your Yahoo ID and complete the "Captcha" code.
Click "Next." If you cannot read the puzzle, click "Can't Read Code."
A new code will be automatically generated.
Choose the option to verify your identity.
If you signed up for Yahoo! cellular-password recovery, you'll see an option to receive a text message.
Click "Next" to have the text message sent.
Use the temporary password to log in to your Yahoo! account; then change your password immediately.

Too many attempts to unlock
Which email account ?
Unlocking your Hotmail account after it has been locked due to too many failed log in attempts can be done using Microsoft's automated password reset system.
The feature has been put in place to protect users from crackers and scammers who would then use the account to steal your personal information and that of your contacts'.
It's a good idea to regularly cycle your passwords to increase the security of your correspondence.
Navigate to account.live.com/ResetPassword.aspx.
Select "I forgot my password."
Click "Reset my password."
Enter your Hotmail email address and the letters in the displayed picture.
Click "Next."
A new password will now be emailed to the alternate email account you've listed in your profile.
You can use this password to log into your now-unlocked Hotmail account.
Yahoo
If you suspect that someone has hacked your Yahoo! account or if you attempt to log in your account too many times with an incorrect password, Yahoo! might lock you out of your account.
After several failed login attempts, the Yahoo! security feature locks your account for a predetermined amount of time to prevent unauthorized users from accessing your account.
Unauthorized users might use your account to send unsolicited emails or intrude on your private content and emails.
Although being locked out of your Yahoo! account can be frustrating, you can gain access to your account and change your password after the lock expires.
Wait 24 hours.
Return to the Yahoo! website and click the "Sign In" link at the top of the page.
Click "I Can't Access My Account."
Select "I Forgot My Password" or "My Password Doesn't Work" from the list of options.
Click the "Next" button to proceed.
Enter your Yahoo! ID in the "My Yahoo! ID is" field.
Enter the security code in the "Enter the Code Shown" field.
Click the "Next" button.
Click "I Cannot Access Any of the Above" and click the "Next" button.
Type the answers to the security questions in the appropriate fields.
You set these security quests when you created your Yahoo! Account.
Click "Next."
Enter a new password in the field and verify the password by retyping it in the field.
Click the "Next" button and Yahoo! resets your password.
The new password is effective immediately, allowing you to sign in your Yahoo! account.
If you have the correct password and login then all you have to do to mess up is use capitals or lowercase where they shouldn't be.
If the security settings are different then it is possable someone got your password logged on and changed it one you effectively stealing your account. You can go to Yahoo and contact them but the hard part is proving who you are and that the account is actually yours.
Change your E-mail password. Contact your ISP (SBC) and tell them that your ID has been "hijacked" -- if you don't contact them, they may "freeze" your account, and cut-off your Internet access.
Access: http://www.yahoo.com
Click "Sign in".
Click "I can't access my account".
Correctly answer all the "secret-questions",
to be authorized to change your password,
and to regain access to your account.
Since you have been away for a long time, the account may have been
deactivated. Try registering the account again and you will be given
the option to reactive the account.
So you notice someone has been doing things in your mailbox! and you are still able to log in to your mail! Its your lucky day! Because the attacker knows your password and can log in to your account with full privilegies anytime, being in position to change your mailbox account password making you locked out from your own mailbox with the result ACCESS DENIED!!! You have a TROJAN HORSE installed in your computer that sends everything you write on your computer directly to the attacker.
SOLUTION: Download antivirus, run scan and as soon you are virusfree log in to your mailaccount and change your password. Now you have locked the attacker out off your account. Do this as soon as possible, because the attacker might also se your attempt to clean your computer. If the attacker is faster than you he might change your mail ACCOUNT AND LOCK YOU OUT FOR EVER.....
