Firefox has stopped loading my Yahoo homepage unless I manually change http: to https: Why?
It started last week, out of the blue. I open Firefox, homepage is set to Yahoo.... I get the message "Sorry, the page requested cannot be found." Firefox help didn't address the issue, but made me think a bit, so I tried changing http:// to https:// and it worked! But unless I enter it manually, it's a no-go. Changed to https:// in my Internet Options, but Firefox still can't seem to access the page w/o me changing it manually.

4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> under "Keep Until" select "They Expire"

Actually, I just thought to type in the https:// address manually, then I did the "click and drag" on the Yahoo logo to the home button again, and now it works. I guess something just corrupted the link as it was previously set. Thanks for your help, though!
