Answer:
First change your password. Account help.http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/acct/in%E2%80%A6 for just about anything to do with your account. Then run anti Virus and Anti Spyware. Should be fine then.

Ah, this is a classic. Well, for one, change your account information, you were probably the victim of a phishing scam somewhere along the line. Also, do a computer scan before doing this, as you may have a keylogger or other piece of malware which enabled them to compromise your account.
