If you can remember the alternative email address you gave at the time of starting your account, and your zip code you used, they will send you a new password to your account. You may also need to remember that birthdate you put on your account.
More than likely someone just tried logging into your account, and after so many attempts with the wrong password, yahoo locks your account. Unless someone guessed your password. They also could have guess your birthdate and zip code.
Never EVER use your real birthdate or zip code with yahoo. Actually your zip code can be your best security tool ever. You can add up to an additional 4 more numbers after the zip code 5.
example: 12345 5 digit zip
12345-1234 (USPS +4 zip)
Yahoo doesn't care which 4 numbers you pick. And your zip has to match exactly with what you fill out in your personal information, especially if you use the +4.
I wouldn't use your +4 zip, because someone might know your address, and be able to look up your +4 zip online.
I hope your account is still in tact. Good luck.

Think that your current or ex-girlfriend might have guessed your password and checking your account behind your back.
