Situation resolved... I guess

I'm so confused now, I don't know what to do. I went over to the computer next to me (no one's using it) and was actually able to change my password from there. (I actually realized I had been entering the wrong zip code - I had given Yahoo a fake zip code and was entering my REAL one.) Anyway, for my birth date it just says "on file" and gives me no option to edit it, which is creepy.

Here's what makes no sense: On the other computer, I can get to my account settings. On MY computer, my computer at work, it doesn't work! What the fuckity fuck is going on here? And what does any of this mean? Should I be freaking out and switching my main email account or just counting my blessings that it wasn't worse? Like I said before, this whole thing might have happened months ago and I just noticed. Argh. It's enough to make me want to throw all the computers out the window. You want me, call or send a letter. :b

EDIT: HAHA! Yahoo has now suspended my account. I don't know how I'm going to explain this whole snafu to them when I don't really understand it myself. We'll see what my computer at home lets me do. For now, email my Livejournal address (or just comment here).

It's amazing how a slow day can fly by when you're having a crisis.

That whole fiasco is so messed up. To hell with hackers. Man.

Hopefully Yahoo isn't too shitty straightening that all out for you. Good luck!
