Someone Help!
« on: September 25, 2006, 06:24:03 PM »
Ok, So I have been trying to log into my yahoo email, sometimes it says "Email is already in use" or "Please Try Again", can anyone help me out on this one? Is it possible that someone could've hacked into my computer and is using my email?

    e-mail already in use might be from not logging out when your done, yahoo still perseves you as being logged in. Please try again has always been for me - just a busy server but then again I'm on dialup :'(,  I'll forget to log off and when I get back on the next day I'll get booted off because my log in time has expired lol. as far as being hacked- do you notice any mail thats not yours or mail from web sites your not using or surfing?, hope it helps. has anyone seen u type in your password, try changing your password if your worried about that if you haven't already. theres good people on this site that I'm sure can be more help than me.
