A friend of mine told me about this. There is a small scam going around, where you are given a link, and it looks just like the yahoo pictures site, and asks you to put in your username and password to login. It isn't really a yahoo page, it actually sends your information to someone, and they hijack your accounts. the site is:

**DO NOT INPUT INFORMATION**

http://geocities.com/aprils_pix/

**DO NOT INPUT INFORMATION**

they hijacked his account, changed the password, and now he can't get in. this is a warning to members here with yahoo accounts. Also, any idea how to get the friend's username and password back? any way to contact yahoo about it?
