I had that problem yesterday for long hours but now it's working Yahoo services were attacked yesterday by massive I.P. redirects resulting in the shutdown and breach of thousands of user accounts and some areas are having problems .
A spokesperson for Yahoo Inc. said that they are aware of the problem and will have services restored as soon as possible. They also added that the security breech was a flaw in the new firewall services currently in beta testing for new upcoming release of Windows Vista, scheduled for release early next year. Yahoo has asked users to secure their accounts by confirming their identity and or changing passwords to a secure, undetectable one which consists of no less than 10 characters of numerals and letters. CNN had contacted Yahoo headquarters for comment but no calls were returned. once you're changed your pass word stay logged in to either your mail , 360 , games, ect. they can't get your password if you're logged in. its what I heard in the newspapers. im just passin the message for them
