...from another computer...."? "... or device."

I'm NOT signed in anywhere but on MY computer. Why did yahoo give me that message? I do have two Mozilla firefox browser tabs open (both signed in to the same email account)... Could that be why? They are both on the same computer, same device, same window even, etc.

Why did it do that?
I was opening up a new tab and signed into yahoo mail again (because I didn't realize that I was already signed into yahoo mail in another tab), and then as soon as the page loaded, that popped up.
I've tested it about 10 times, and whenever I have my email open in just 1 tab, it's fine. But if I keep it open in one tab, and then try to open it in another tab, that's when it gives me the popup. So I'm thinking that must be it... ?
 
that could be why, Ive never experienced that. try using one tab and see if that happens. Is it possible someone has hacked your account? though unlikely, you should check that out. try reseting your password.

That's probably why. The reason Yahoo has that is because if someone found out your password, they could get on at the same time as you and change everything on your account. I would recommend just having one tab open with your email on it.
