Messenger Help

I wanted to talk to a live person, which seems N/A. I have tried to log in to my Yahoo Messenger and it has locked me out. I've changed the password several times to gain access and I'm still locked out. Even rebooted and it doesn't help. Will someone please talk to me, this is getting me nowhere!

Hi ARRETLM,

Yahoo uses temporary, automatic account locking as a security measure to protect accounts from unauthorized access. Sometimes you can also get temporarily locked out of your own account as a result of three or more failed sign in attempts: This triggers our security system to temporarily lock the account for 24 hours.

You can also refer to the link below to get more information:

Please reply if you need any further help.

Thanks & Regards
