Default Has anyone's Yahoo mail ever been hacked?

I'm worried that my Yahoo email account may not have the highest security level. I've heard some people complaining on other message boards that their mail has been read by outsiders. Has this happened to you? Do you think this could be a real threat?

I have never had my emails hacked before and I don't plan to. I only access my emails on my own pc and I perform spyware scans daily.

There are 2 ways to hack a e-mail account these days. either with a key logger or sending a mail like from yahoo asking you to relogin for something. other wise these days main email services like Yahoo, Gmail and Hotmail are pretty hacker proof
