Posted by tbaggs46 on Fri, 12/21/2007 - 11:57SFX Technical Issues

Firefox 2.0.0.11, XP SP 2.

when I try to log in (give Id & password) Yahoo reports "Can't talk now. System's down."

I have no problems when using IE

I don't have any problem accessing Yahoo mail (about as spam-o-riffic as Hotmail, but they've both improved lately). However, my monitor is set to 800 x 600, so it reverts to Yahoo classic. New mail interfaces are often clunky (Web mail supplied by Everyone.net is dreadful, but their "old" style works.)

What I guess I'm trying to say is that maybe it's a combination of monitor settings, browser conflict, their bad setup, etc. Not likely to be a Firefox bug in and of itself.

Works for me. Although I can't stand those yahoos. Their "new" mail interface is annoying as heck, full of adds, incomplete, and claims it needs Windows 2000 or later to work (No it doesn't!).
