Yahoo Messenger invalid password

Hey guys,
I experience same problem before 3 times all my yahoo id, having problem logging in to messenger it says invalid password. i

tried to use their online help but it seems cannot help, the help that they've provided to their yahoo customer - anyways.

i reported already this to yahoo even i called them thru phone once had responded me. They said i had violated yahoo service

agreement. I was wondering how it happends i usually do personal chat only.. plain chat.. so i told not fair to accuse me of

such violation. I told them may be some bugs with your system. but still they dont admit about that. so i was anngry i lost

all my yahoo contacts... now i've tried to create 2 more id one for personal again one is for playgroud chatting id -. What

i've notice.. 4 weeks after chatting , collectings new frieds with one of my new id... i got the same problem.... you know

what i did and what i've noticed two things that cause same problem...

1. IF YOU ARE ACCESSING SOME of your yahoo id at the same time and come back to your different yahoo messenger it will give

you that problem.. the solution do not login again if you got this problem of INVALID PASSWORD just cancel it.. turn off your

pc... Delete all your cookies. if you are using internet explorer 6.0 do the ff otherwise if lower version delete it manual

from C:\WINDOWS\cookies directory. for 6.0 version go to internet explorer => Tools => Internet options => from general tab

you will find DELETE COOKIES button. click that one... then uninstall your yahoo messenger including all the yahoo

components.. try to download fresh yahoo messenger in the internet and install again once more. now you can login again.

note: after installing new yahoo messenger. do not login first... go to different computer having yahoo messenger. try to

login there or if you have GPRS connection in your mobile try to access your yahooo id.. if succesfully login from your

mobile or to differenct computer.. sign out now and please log-in now to your PC with the fresh installed yahoo messenger..

This what i did its working trust me.


2.Please do not try to login to www.my.yahoo.com and change the password there.. that will block your id and you cannot login

anymore just CANCEL IT if YOU GOT ERROR "INVALID PASSWORD" then follow the steps 1.

Hope i can help if you want some more info post here. (Reymund please dont ask people to email you to receive help)

but i suggest... MSN still best to use. You wont be facing this problem.

Regards
reymund

What you said made no sense to me whatsoever. If yahoo is deactivating your accounts from things you are doing, then im sure it's meritted, I'm always exploiting yahoo's servers here lately and I haven't lost any accounts.

yahoo can lock your account for simply scrolling a room to fast by typing or usong emotes.........if your getting automatically ignored in chat eventually you will get that account locked
