Question: how can someone with my yahoo id and password check my archives and internet logs even when i've deleted them i've deleted them but i'm told of things that were long in the past.  Im guessing this person has been in my account for longer. they also have my ip address, is this a way they can access my computer?

Answer: :) it's not yahoo to blaim for that!\nthe only place where the arhived im from yahoo messenger are stored it's in the Yahoo! Messenger Profiles if you had instaled windows in the c: drive and the messenger files into "program files" you will find the arhive stored at this path "C: Program Files Yahoo! Messenger Profiles"\n!so the arhive it's stored on your computer.\n!logicly there are only two ways that a hacker can acces your IM arhive:\n1. The hacker has acces to your compuer.\n2. You had shared yor program program files folder on the p2p networks or any other file sharing network eg (odc++ , dc++ , e donkey , kazza , lime wire..so onn..\nThis it's how you can protect yoursef:\n1. If it is the first case than you'll have to insal a strong frewall and i mean STRONG something like black ice\nyou can find black ice on sofpedia or at the black ice home page.\n2. In the second case unshare the files from p2p networks!\nGood Luck ;)
