I deleted some cookies in yahoo. Now when I am signed into yahoo and try to play a Yahoo game I get stuck in a loop where I am being asked to enter my password. I have reset my password. I have even created a new account and password. Nothing is working. Any suggestions?

That issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.

Also make sure that the Yahoo site isn't in the cookie exceptions.


If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Got the cookies situation fixed. However, I do not have a horizontal scroll bar, so when I go to Yahoo games and get the encrypted code page, it is far right and I cannot scroll over to read it. Please help me get my horizontal scroll bar back.
