Update: Yahoo is rolling out a fix for this issue. Try shift-reloading the page (hold Shift and click the Reload button) to fix it.

Some Firefox users of Yahoo! and at&t email may see a message when they log in that says, "Your browser is blocking Flash." It appears that the website can't detect the latest version of the Flash plugin and therefore claims it's been blocked. You should be able to click OK and continue using the site normally.
