Unless you made a list there is no easy way to find them. You can always look through all your cookies and maybe find most of them.

For your Yahoo Accounts:

oIF YOU HAVE MORE THAN ONE YAHOO ACCOUNT BE SURE THAT ONLY THE ACCOUNT YOU WANT TO DELETE IS SIGNED IN. Do NOT delete the old account until you have exported your Contact list and forwarded any important saved mails to the new account. Please read carefully the list of ALL other services and accounts that close as well as the mail account. Yahoo Questions or Answers that are In Voting or Resolved will NOT be deleted. They will remain in the Yahoo Archives for searching, and on web search sites too.
o
o
oYou must be logged into the Yahoo account you wish to delete.
o
oGo to this page: https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_use…

Make sure that you understand that you are deleting all Yahoo sites associated with the account ID including photos at Flickr
When you terminate your account you will lose access to your Yahoo! ID, Yahoo! Mail, and profile names. They will also delete your account data and settings across the Yahoo! network. This includes any contents in:

✔ Flickr - Don't forget that this is part of Yahoo. You will lose all your photos stored there.
✔ Yahoo! Mail
✔ Yahoo! Messenger
✔ Yahoo! Address Book
✔ Yahoo! HotJobs
✔ My Yahoo!
✔ Yahoo! Groups
✔ Finance Portfolio
✔ Yahoo! Answers - Profile only - Q&A remain

All web mail accounts automatically delete after not signing in for several months. For Yahoo and Hotmail, this is six months, and for G-mail it is nine months. You do not even need to remember the usernames for these accounts - just don't sign in or use them! Most accounts allow for alias user names tied to one account, so you can have more than one address for each new account.
Each social network site has a different deletion process, but you still need to remember the username and password to find the steps to delete. Check you bookmarked folders for these, and search for information on how to delete the accounts.

To delete your Yahoo account(s), sign in and click this link to the termination page. Type your password, fill in the 'Captcha' image and click under the Yes (Terminate this account) ...

For a Gmail account, see: http://email.about.com/od/gmailtips/qt/e..._gmail.htm
For a Windows Live Hotmail account, see: http://email.about.com/od/windowslivehot...ccount.htm
You cannot close an AIM account - just don't use it!

To close a Facebook account permanently, with no recovery option

Close a YouTube account:
1.Click on your username bar box. Click on Settings.
2. Click on Manage Accounts section, then click 'Remove account'
3. Options: keep it for a while, and removing it permanently.
To delete your Flickr account you need to be logged in, then go to http://www.flickr.com/profile_delete.gne Or log in and use You => You Account - Personal Information and use the delete link at the bottom of the page. Then delete your Yahoo account. To keep your Flickr account, transfer Flickr to another account prior to deleting Yahoo. You WILL need another Yahoo account - but you only need to use it to get the email address to log in to Flickr. .
To transfer you need to be logged in to Flickr. Go to You => Your Account - Personal Information. Under "Your Yahoo! account" is an option - "Use a different Yahoo! ID for this Flickr account". This transfers your account. Yahoo can only be transferred to another Yahoo account. Once transferred, alter the email settings: You => Your Account - Emails & Notifications'. If you add another email address by editing "Your contact email" - confirm it, then go back to that page and make it primary. Use your new Yahoo email address for logging in.
