I cannot login to Yahoo mail on Firefox. I get this message:

         An error occurred while processing your request.
         Reference #97.b77a4217.1617032828.126c598b 

This might be a problem with Yahoo, but I am able to login on other browsers.

Any ideas?

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
