   If you (or anyone else) enter the wrong information too many times while trying to sign in, your account is locked for security purposes. This is to prevent people from trying to gain access to your account by guessing at your password.

   You can read more about it at the following Yahoo! Account Security help page: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/securit…

    Sounds like some one has been attempting to enter the account and failed. After three attempts the account is locked for 24 hours.
    You may need to contact service representative and explain the problem. If it was not you trying to get in, I suggest you also change your password.
