Question

When I usey Yahoo email, I get reminded to log in my password every 5 minutes. How do I change the timing for that prompting to every 4 hours?

Answer 1

go to your account information page... either from messy:

Main Messenger Window>Messenger>My Account Info

or by logging into any yahoo site and clicking the "My Account" link.

now in the first editable section of your info,where it sez "Member Information" and lists your sex, industry, occupation and so on.. click "Edit". scroll down to the bottom of the page where there is a select box field that sez "Prompt For Password" and change it to your choice of available options
