haven't been around for awhile.....and what an awful way to drop in.....i got hit as well......learned from bigbear about this thread and how alot of pixies are gettin' hit too......now i've got a problem since hearing from pf as well as talking to bigbear.....i went to try and change my yahoo password....and it won't let me!!!!....i've been trying for maybe 2 hours now......everytime i try, i get redirected to "page not available"....any ideas what i should do now?....i've sent a message to yahoo security.....i'm thinking my only recourse is to completely delete my account and just start all over.

whatever has happened to me thru those links gets more mysterious.....has this happened to anybody else?.....catch22 and i were chatting today and he was trying to help me fix the problem....can't remember exactly what prompted me to ask him, but i asked him to look up my yahoo profile....do a search on that nic.....it came up with nuffin!!!!.....gave him a message that said that person did not exist.....so i did a search....and indeed, i couldn't find me either......however, if i put my nic and password in on any yahoo spot....even after logging out....it accepted it!!!.....and if i go to the "see my profile" page, there i am.....wtf???

I can.
I received conformation of my password change from Yahoo on Tue 11/15/2005 22:38 EST. That means anything that was sent before 11/16/2005 13:38 AEST, was before the corrective action was taken, so that’s understood for Alasse and SODA.
But SHIT!!!
That means that Lilith and IWM received bogus message from me AFTER the password change. Therefore, the culprit has (1) taken my buddy list outside my Yahoo account, (2) still has a way into my buddy list (and maybe anything else that would be part of a Yahoo account), or (3) has setup housekeeping inside my Yahoo account.
My antivirus and spybot scans can’t see him yet if he’s living in my basement. I will send a specific request to Yahoo for their insight and any patch or scan that can confirm he’s not living here. If it’s not a resident, I hope Yahoo can tell me how to lock the door for any revisits, as the password change did not cure the problem. If our buddy list with passwords were looted, … ANYTHING could be done with them.
Please check my thinking on this and let me know any further information you may come across.
(*I’m so happy that is ONLY IM for me* )

My message wasn't from you this time. It's a worm. It went from you to everyone on your list who clicked and entered their info. All of them are sending the links now too. So "I" sent the links and peeps on my list are sending them...and so on. After you changed your password I bet none came from your Yahoo. Changing your password is what stops the cycle.

Sorry I read your posts as an answer to my post.
I'm happy as hell to hear that those were NOT from me and that the password change HAS seemed to work.
Thanks for clarifying that before I went chasing ghosts.
