Are you having trouble getting Yahoo email to work? Last 2 days I can get to the Yahoo home page but when I click on mail...it just sits there with the hour glass rolling around and the status bar about 4-5 bars and just won't open. I did a search for problems, clicked on something htere and it went to my yahoo mail page, but opening each email...it just sits and says "loading" nad the thing rolls and rolls.
Bottom line.. I can't open any email....everything else works so it isn't the Mozilla browser, but I did try to use IE and the same thing happened. I can go anywhere else on the net and even on the news on the Yahoo home page, but just cant' get to my email....anyone else having this problem? Or if not, any suggestions as to how I can get it to work..did I miss an update or something? Any suggestions?

Is this your first experience, or have you got the same problem before?
First, try not to open too many websites at the same times. Second, make sure you are not downloading anything, pause it for a moment. Third, try open Yahoo Mail using Mozilla Firefox in safe mode.
Hope this helps.

No I not faced any trouble in my yahoo mail. I think mostly peoples complains that their yahoo mail doesn’t work properly and they are facing some problem while they have checked their mails. But this problem is not happen with me. And I hope soon this problem will resolved by yahoo. So be patience.

Thanks to all for suggestions. Of course, today it is working fine! Go figure! Biggest problem was that I was trying to pay my bills online and couldn't receive ID code information that the companys would send to my email to complete paying the bill. Oh how annoying the "online life"! Good reason to go back to paying with a check!

I have not had this problem recently, but I've had the same or a similar problem before. I cannot remember whether it was an issue with cookies or whether it was some type of virus. After a few days of experiencing a situation like the one that you have described, the issue seems to have resolved itself.
Perhaps try running a virus scan on your system?

I haven't had any problems with Yahoo mail, and as far as I know, there haven't been any updates lately. I don't use Windows, but it seems as if the other commenter's suggestion to use safe mode might be worth trying. From what I understand, large sites can have servers in different locations. Maybe there's a problem between you and the server that sends you your mail. Or there is a problem with the server itself. Just throwing out wild guesses here. I've seen sites go wonky for a few days at a time for no reason that I can figure out. Here's hoping you get your mail back. It would be driving me crazy.
