I keep getting the message that my password is invalid, My other computer was hacked, so I changed my password, As of this date Yahoo has yet to recognize my new password. How can I make sure my new password is recognized?
To change your password assuming it's Yahoo http://edit.yahoo.com/config/change_pw before you change it back up any important mail you may have. Several people have lost their mail when changing the password.
This way, the hacker will no longer be able to see your new password because all infections have been removed from your PC and prevent any more of your accounts being compromised.

I'd recommend downloading Malwarebytes to remove any infections on your PC.
Malwarebytes Download: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/
Once you have it, run a full system scan as well as a flash scan.
This way you will remove any infections from your PC.
After you have removed any infections, change all of your passwords to a new password.
Try to make your new password as hard to Crack/Bruteforce as possible.
To generate a password that is difficult to Bruteforce, go here - http://strongpasswordgenerator.com/
This way, the hacker will no longer be able to see your new password because all infections have been removed from your PC and prevent any more of your accounts being compromised.
I hope this helps.
