I know it was hacked into because they changed all my information so I couldn't request my password to be emailed to me

You really need to make up a strong password. It should contain letters, numbers, and symbols, be somthing that isn't personally related to you (too easy for seople to guess) and be between 6-10 characters. The longer the better because it makes it that much more difficult to crack.
An example of a good password would be something like:
&52_azk@!
Now, who would be able to guess something like that?
Also, if this is happening to you regularly, you need to checky your computer for spyware, adware, viruses and keylogger software.
Good luck to you!

probably one of your friends playing a prank on you. i doubt if they hacked their way in. i'd be more likely to think they guessed your password. a lot of people use easy to remember words for passwords.
i wouldn't even trust my mother with my password. :)

Stop giving out your password!
Did you reply to an email from 'Yahoo'...that had a link to their 'homepage', and you went there and logged on?

Nope, just forget it and oh yeah, make sure to tell everybody (in you contacts I mean) that your account has been hacked. Tell them to ignore and permanently block that account.
