If I had, I wouldn't be so much of an idiot as to admit it here.
Are you seriously that thick that you are willing to ask about tools for illegally hacking Yahoo on a site that Yahoo own and maintain?!
Remember: Anyone that claims to be a hacker isn't a hacker. Real hackers are secretive - that's how they get away with it.

Actually, hackers are not secretive. Hacking is not just the illegal action of breaking into someone's computer or a network for illegal purposes. Hacking has more to do with extending an operating system, adding addition functionality or modifying features. Hackers are usually more associated with helping to improve a system than hurting it. There are rogue hackers, but they are misfits in the community and usually not all that great (although there are some great ones out there).
Most password finding programs are crap...actually, I would say all are crap, unless the password you are trying to find was created by someone who doesn't care all that much. Basically what they do is plug in password after password to see if any work. It has no way of guessing any better than you or I.
The bigger problem is that a lot of these rogue (but crappy) products have viruses to steal your passwords. So here you are using a program to steal a password and there is a high probability that yours is being stolen.
The obly way to get a password is to install a key stroke logger, but you have to have access to the computer the person regularly uses inorder to install it.

As an IT administrator, I can tell you that if you crack someone's E-mail with a program, Yahoo can trace your IP address right back to the computer that was used. And assuming your stalking a guy, I would not suggest that because they will notify him that you tried to crack his password so you can kiss that relationship goodbye anyway. Why not be more like me and my girlfriend, TRUST EACH OTHER. Don't stalk him, its only going to push him away even more. If someone's cheating on you, then be the better person and walk away. Don't go to jail for your cheating spouse. Oh and the only reason I am assuming that it involves cheating is because 14 out of 15 cases of E-mail hacking that get taken to court is because of suspicions of cheating, if your that 1 out of 15, I am sorry.

never tried it, never needed it. I doubt there are good programs to do this, if you find any on the Internet chances are that you are only downloading a virus!
I know that Yahoo won't support any programs like that, and if they find out you are using it, they are not going to like it! (and maybe take legal actions)
