Cool, thanks for that.
I haven't received any files from anyone recently, so I don't think it's that. I'll run myself a few scans later to check if my machine is clean anyway.

I thought about the possibility of someone else getting into my account and changing the passwords, but the thing is, when I try to send an email to the yahoo account it just bounces saying this:

Technical details of failure:
PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 13): 554 delivery error: dd This user doesn't have a yahoo.co.uk account ([edited]@yahoo.co.uk) [-5] - mta108.mail.ukl.yahoo.com

Now, to me, that suggests my account has disappeared, and the only way someone (other than yahoo) could have achieved that is to delete it, right? But if they'd deleted it then surely my yahoo photos and geocities stuff would have vanished too...? Just seems weird to me. My profile's totally blank now, and it says it was last updated today.

Looks like all my cookies and whatnot have expired now as I can't get into my mail anymore. It sends me to the login screen, so I try logging in and I'm just greeted by an invalid password screen.

Unfortunately, I don't know what details I entered, I know I never fill in fields like Zip Address truthfully, so if it doesn't start working again on it's own then I'll have to make a new one. Luckily though since I still had some access to my mail I quickly saved all the important stuff into a text file.
