If your Yahoo email account was hacked/hijacked, just changing to a more secure password my not be the only step to take.

Begin by setting up a new email account at either Yahoo or another provider. You will need this as back up or as you new main site.

Nonethe less, I know you want access to other information in your current Yahoo email account.

Go to the following Yahoo Customer Service site and begin buy selecting an answer which most closely describes your issue:  https://edit.yahoo.com/forgotroot
