Is it possible to delete a Yahoo account?
Apparently I have an old Yahoo account floating around the internet and I was wondering if there is a possible way to delete it. I remember both the account name and password just in-case I need it (wont be telling anyone it but still just in-case)

Here's how you close a Yahoo account. You'll have to be able to login to any account you wish to close.

Yahoo accounts are deactivated after one year of inactivity so if the account hasn't been logged into in that length of time then the account has been deactivated.
