Yahoo! Mail

Hi,
Been having a nightmare of a day with this. Getting the same on 2 computers so it's either my log in or their system.
Can access the webpage fine but when I log on or refresh the page, it comes toa standstill.
Is anyone else having any trouble (psss I kind off want you to say yes so I know it's nothing to do with my log in!!!)

Thanks
Sam

    No problems at all - suggest you clear cookies / history & retry

    nope, all fine for me too. Use Ccleaner to get arid of all your old internet files etc..
  • Thanks will do, but is it likely to be that if it's the same on 2 computers?
    But will do it anyway.

    Been OK with me all day, You might check what version you are using, if you are on Yahoo Mail Beta you can switch back to normal mail and see if it makes a difference. The option to switch back is under where it says welcome your user name top left hand corner.
  • aaaggghhhh!

    Have you, at anytime, had the yahoo page pop up unexpectedly and signed in? If this is the case you may have fallen for a fairly wide spread scam and your account has been hijacked. Go to the Yahoo home page and find their help section and get in touch with them. As you quite rightly say, it's likely to be your login at fault because it's the same on both PCs.

  • OH I don't know - possibly?
    Anyway I went to yahoo homepage and squeezed myself in that way. Have changed back to normal mail so will see if that holds up tomorrow.
    Thanks everyone for your help
