I suggest you try to remember the original information you made with the account, I know it’s not always as easy as that but yahoo have clamped down on some account security and they will not accept “i don’t know the answers” and your account will remain locked.
If your account can’t login from messenger locally then restoring your login info to another system would make no difference and your account will still be locked serverside.
However you can try gareths login edit at http://gareth-software.com/?dl_id=13.
Information: This is an utility for YLR (Yahoo Messenger Login Recovery) which allows you to login to Yahoo! Messenger using stored login details on a computer.
If this fails then i suggest you either remember your login information or unlock it by other means.

Please understand that there are a few basic rules that help keep your accounts from getting hijacked. If Yahoo! didn’t require you to confirm account ownership using the linked email (or alternate email), it would be easy for anyone to claim that they lost their password and essentially take over anyone else’s account.
I understand that this can be frustrating and inconvenient, but keeping a current, valid email address associated with your Yahoo account is essential if you ever want to recover your password.
Incidentally, most online services work the same way — they are “keyed” to your email account. If you forget your password, the only way to reset it is via that email address.
