Does anyone know, is it possible to recover a deleted/cancelled Yahoo Messenger ID account? I feel that a family member may have had one that was kept a secret from me, but I am not able to prove this. Thank you.

Very doubt indeed, once cancelled/deleted they are free to be reallocated

Have you got any idea what the name is or are you just being overly paranoid ?

Yes I know the ID, but it is not listed in the Yahoo id directory. But I have evidence that it probably once existed, even though I am told it never did. I am told that it must have been a virus that created that id and saved it in a folder.

Hi,
Your chances of recovering it are slim and none.
