I cancelled my Yahoo account due to being hacked but still get annoying pop-ups from Yahoo requesting my password. I've tried everything to stop this. Can anyone offer a solution? Thanks!
Thanks for your reply - the pop-ups occur randomly, there's no pattern. I can be checking emails or watching a movie. I deleted my account in accordance with Yahoo's instructions.
A friend has advised me to delete the Yahoo program from my system also to use MRT Microsoft's malicious spyware program. I haven't done this yet, think it'll help?
Are you being prompted for your password on a website, by a browser or a separate program? If the latter, and it's something like Yahoo Messenger, then you should delete that as well..if the browser, then clear your history/cache, and remove any Yahoo related toolbars you might have installed..
Will try to send a screen shot when the pop-up appears again if I can figure out how to do that, also I don't know how to delete settings from mail client (pretty new to Mac)...thanks!
