Yahoo Fights Phishing With Password Protection |
|
|
a_cup writes "We may start seeing less Yahoo mail/messenger accounts being stolen thanks to Yahoos new security measures. Yahoo recently added protection for their login pages. There are many Phishing scams that present themselves as a Yahoo login page. Once signed into these scam sites the users password is taken, the password changed and the user loses his/her account.
To help prevent users from signing into a scam site, Yahoo now offers the option to use a sign in seal which allows a user to personalize the Yahoo login pages."

Privacy: Your cookie tracked online by Yahoo! |
|
|
The question in this column is about Yahoo's cookie being tracked by Yahoo not just at their site, but elsewhere. The answer by James Derk, co-owner of CyberDads:
It's actually true. Yahoo is using something called "Web beacons" or a "super cookie" that tracks not only where its users go on the Yahoo network but also tracks where they go outside of the Yahoo network using a persistent file on the hard drive. Note that you have to have a Yahoo account to be tracked. If you want to opt-out of this tracking, log in to your Yahoo account, then go to privacy yahoo.com/privacy.
