Yesterday my yahoo Im was fine, then I recieved an off line message from a friend who had enclosed a link which I clicked on to open,I now know this was obviously bogus because I spoke to him and the same thing happened to his,and he didn't send it to me. My account no longer exists, I can't sign in, it doesnt recognise my user name or alternative email address,I recieved the same off line message on my other yahoo from the one that doesnt work now,(I certainly didn't send it to myself, I didn't open the link so that appears to be fine..I have no way of contacting yahoo to find out what is going on, does anyone know if there is a hideous virus or something going round it? I am now a bit stuffed because I cant contact any of my buddies..help..

Run a spyware check on your computer


Then download the Yahoo messenger again, and try and log in.
