> Im really puzzled. I would never use my real name for anything and i made a yahoo account with this ID name. hmmm. Unless my name is the same as a server?? LOL I guess its possible. Ill give it anohter try.
When you registered with Yahoo, you probably had to enter some minimum info in addition to picking an ID. Usually first-name, last-name, other (non-Yahoo) email address. Maybe what country you're in? I can't remember all of it. Go to http://my.yahoo.com/ and click on "My Account". (You'll be asked for your Yahoo password.) The Account Info page has data that you can check/edit as necessary. You might want to edit your contact info. Or your Public Info (like Profiles).
Once you've checked that then go to http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups From there you can access the different groups you belong to. Within the groups, you can use the Edit Membership option to check/edit any identifying info there. Yahoo features can be a bit tricky at first, but you really can do a lot to protect your real identity. Maybe this Help page will... help? http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/profiles/
Good luck.
