I've had a Yahoo! email address (along with others) for years, and, as 
far as I know, my account has never been hijacked or spoofed. I *think* 
this is because (a) I do not read my messages using the Web interface 
but have them sent to the Inbox on my computer; (b) my address book is 
on my computer rather than on the Yahoo! site; and (c) I do not use a 
Windows machine for email, so I am not susceptible to 
address-book-hijacking viruses.
