I need help. I just updated my computer with a new copy of windows xp. I use yahoo as my main email and such. I had a copy of Yahoo messenger on my computer that would automaticaly log me in and it had my username and password stored. when I updated my computer I lost my stored username and pasword. Is there anyway I can get that back, as I cannot remember my password, and since I set up that account so long ago, I dont remember that "secret, dont forget this cause its your last chance to get your password back, secret word" that I made when I set up that account.

What I do have is a full copy of the Yahoo! folder that I backed up before I updated the computer ( if the password is stored in a file in there...I hope).. if its stored in the regestry I guess Im just SOL.

Is there any hope for me?

Thank you for all help in advance!
