Why indeed, when there's no notion of why you can't or won't or wouldn't! Is there some off-putting message it offers instead of letting you login, or do you just need to enable a few script hosts (Yahoo.com and about 5 more Yahoo ones) having installed NoScript, to get webmail running? Perhaps the firewall or DNS things at work changed if that's the route you're logging in from. Something changed from having internet access to your browser or your firewall, and perhaps it changed the response you get logging in?

SOURCE: e-a-mail security problem?

I have experienced this same pop-up. I have been a Yahoo mail client for the past 14 years and I can tell you with a certain level of confidence that this is something you don't need to worry a about. It's a conflict between the yahoo mail server and the yahoo messenger server.

SOURCE: problems configuring Yahoo mail for Windows Mail

The most common causes of these error messages are problems with Internet connectivity and account settings configured incorrectly in Outlook or Outlook Express.

Perform the following methods in order. If one method does not resolve the issue, move on to the next one. The methods are as follows:

Method 1: Start Outlook in safe mode
Method 2: Create a new e-mail profile
Method 3: Delete suspicious messages from your mailbox
Method 4: Check your antivirus vendor’s Web site for additional suggestions
Method 5: Remove, and then reinstall Outlook Express
Method 6: Verify that all SMTP e-mail addresses in a distribution list are valid
Method 7: Examine the configuration of your firewall software

If your antivirus solution includes an e-mail scanning feature, you may have to perform additional configuration tasks to use Outlook or Outlook Express with the antivirus e-mail scanning feature.

Antivirus software that is known to have caused this problem includes products by the following vendors:

  • Symantec (Norton)
  • McAfee
  • Trend Micro (PC-cillin)
  • Panda

SOURCE: cant log into yahoo mail

I had the same problem 2 days ago, I tried a lot of things and finally got the the solution.
It was a DNS resolution problem
In my wireless netgear DG 834GT router settings (through IE), at the DNS address I unchecked "get automatic from ISP" then checked to use the primary DNS at 4.2.2.2 and secondary DNS at 4.2.2.3 ( I followed the Router's manual instructions )
Maybe u have to see in your Router manual what address u have to put for primary and secondary DNS?
Good luck, hope this will help

Where is my yahoo email account

One of the drawbacks of free email services is that they're easy to forget you have an account. Yahoo! Mail is just one of those free email services.
Say a few months go by, you've turned your attentions elsewhere, but you remembered you have a Yahoo! account and you want to check your email.
But after you log in, it informs you that your Yahoo! Mail is no longer active. What do you do?

Log in to your Yahoo! Mail account as usual.
A message will appear that says your account has been deactivated due to inactivity.
Reactivate your Yahoo! Mail by clicking on the "Reactivate Your Yahoo! Mail address" link that is located at the bottom of the page.
Sign into your account at least once a month to avoid automatic deactivation by Yahoo! in the future.

I cant log on. I am always logged on via my phone but tonight when i went to check my yahoo mail it said something about not the correct password. Then I went online and tried to log on and kept being told...

this usually happens if you are still logged in into your mobile phone without logging out, you access the same account using a computer this time.

the way to avoid this next time is to log out first when you're logging into your computer from the mobile phone and vice versa.

or much worse you have clicked another url pretending to be yahoo mail login and provided your password into it, yahoo will automatically deny access protecting your account.

before you login
http://mail.yahoo.com/
click either on I can't access my account or Help below the button "Sign In"

Hello there, if you think your account was hacked, you should immediately report it to the yahoo security team. Give some detailed information, so they could verify your ownership. This is the email address wherein you could send email regarding your concern: [email protected]

Getting trouble into logging in ym

First, try logging into your Yahoo mail instead of Yahoo Messenger - http://mail.yahoo.com/. If you are getting the same message then your Yahoo account might be locked for security reasons. Please read more information about this in http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/id_password/edit-22.html

If still you are not able to find a solution, you need to contact Yahoo customer care.
