I found this weird issue that I am sure it's not related network/Firewall but Firefox settings/add-ons. However I am unable to figure it out.

When I google something which in Yahoo Answers site, click the link in Firefox, the content has been replaced with "This question has been deleted" and all other tabs, banners display fine. here is sample link: http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100321165852AAX4gUO

Then I copy-paste the link into IE, everything displays fine.

I've asked my friend to try and also I tried it from home, I couldn't reproduce the issue in FF.

Problem solved. "Clear the Cache" doesn't help. "Remove the Cookies" from yahoo.com works.

Thanks.

Hi, cor-el,

Thanks.
