    As long as you aren't able to answer the security question, you will keep having problems. So you need to try and recover it, here's how...

    To contact customer support directly for assistance, you should fill out a Help form at:

    http://io.help.yahoo.com/contact/index?locale=en_U...

    Select "Yahoo! accounts" as the product, "password and sign in" as the category, and "unable to sign in" as the subcategory.

    2: To protect your account from similar problems in the future, you should set up your second sign-in verification, here are the details: http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&y=PROD...
