Phishing website

I received a message from one friend to click on this website http://www.geocities.com/sexypic44/ and it turned out to be a phishing website. I don't know how long will this website remain open but I just checked in again. The webpage is exact replica of yahoo photos website and it prompts you to enter your password and id. Even though my browser detected it as a phishing website. I wasn't paying much attention to it. So it tricked me into revealing my password. I realized a moment later when it redirected me to the main website and again asking the password but with a slightly different layout. I immediately changed my password. Logged out of yahoo and messenger. Hope I am safe.
