Hi guys. Help needed.

A friend keeps having her account locked by a someone (not Yahoo) hacking in
and locking it and it's starting to get to her as she keeps having to set a
new account up.

is there anything she can do to find out who it is? Or to stop it?
Cheers.

Tell her to be more careful about who she gives her account
details to.

and make sure she has a good password, don't use something stupid like her
name, don't us a password that has anything to do with her. It will take a
hacker 2 seconds to get into a account with a weak password

The chances of being hacked multiple times are very low unless she has a
really stupid password or is using the same password everywhere. If its due
to the password I would look into viruses / keyloggers / spyware or someone
she knows.
