Hello Raj,
I wanted to point out that http://people.yahoo.com, which you are referencing here http://www.hackingarticles.in/steps-to-perform-footprinting/, is no longer offering their people search directory under your “Use people search for personal information of employees” category.
If you would like a replacement for it or want additional resources for your page, I would love for you to include a my website, http://www.phonebooks.com. My site offers a free people search and telephone directory.
In any case, I wanted to draw your attention to the other service which is no longer offered.
Regards,
Mary Ann Rosenthal
