How do i change my picture by my nickname?

My Yahoo profile picture and nickname keeps changing, and it won't let me change it back.?

  • I tried deleting the picture (a picture of some girl), but the picture keeps coming back after I delete it! I can't find any information on this - is it a virus, or what?

  • Answer:

    Sounds like someone has gained access to your account, but I could be wrong. Click this: http://profiles.yahoo.com/ Log in to view your profile. Click the words 'Account Info' in blue in the upper right corner. Enter your password. Click 'Edit' on the line for 'Email info'. Add a secondary email address. If you don't have one, get one from gmail or hotmail. Make it your primary email. Then change your password on your yahoo account. Go to your non-yahoo email address and you should have a notification of the change. Do it in that order. If you need help with these steps, since I have not detailed every last click, IM me and I'll walk you through it. If someone has access to your Yahoo account and you are having your notifications sent to your Yahoo account, this person can be privy to every move you make and delete their own tracks. Then change your picture. If you still find that it changes back, provide additional information and we'll go from there.
