I'd seen a little information about Yahoo's latest offering of a customized sign-in seal to protect users ID's and passwords from phishing sites but as per my norm I never really found the time to check it out.. then the other day I noticed a posting from tim2679 in our forum thread Is there a way to "lock" my Yahoo Account? where he suggested bobg go check it out.. so I thought I should too.

Their latest offering is quick, it's simple, there's the option of customized text or image seals (I opted for image) and it works brilliantly! After creating mine I then spent a wee part of my day poking my nose into typical Yahoo! sites where your Yahoo! ID and password is required (like Yahoo! Photos and Yahoo! Mail) and all was still aok... in fact I was thrilled.
