You need to do an ID/Password Recovery. The two questions you will be asked is your birthday and the ZIP or postal code you have on file. You will need to click the "Sign-In Problems Page". Here is the link.

I have forgot my password and yahoo secret question's answers, plz help
Well Yahoo has tight security feature that wont allow you get your password if you do not remember your secret questions and answers. When you first opened the account, did you add an alternate email? If you remember the email you added and the password to that then go to that mail as yahoo always sends you account details to the alternate mail.
If you still cant remember any of the details, then you will have to open a new account. But make sure u note the questions and answers down somewhere safe that you wont misplace it. Also remember to use an everyday word thats common to you, like a combination of ur parents names or friends names etc.
I hope this helps you in some way.

My password yahoo account and all my secret answers has been comprimised.. i can't access my yahoo mail, please help me. i need know how i can take back my yahoo account and password.. urgent...
I assume you have already tried the the Yahoo sign-in wizard, which is used to help retrieve (or reset) passwords. See: https://edit.yahoo.com/forgot

If your password and secret questions yhave been changed. I would suggest going to the sign-in wizard, and select the option for "My account may have been compromised".

I have to change my password in yahoo messenger, my old password doesn't work.
You can find the "Forgot Your Password?" right on the bottom part of the Yahoo Messenger window after you open it, it is usually highlighted with lightblue color, right below the "Get a new Yahoo ID " link.....click the the Forget Your Password? link and it will help you throughout the process on how to change your password. All you got to do is provide the information you've provided before, when you have signed for a yahoo mail account. Most importantly, you need your secret answer to your secret question. That's it! You can now change/retrieved your password and access your account.
Please rate if this helps.....Goodluck!
