Since yesterday afternoon cannot connect to my.yahoo.com - why? xxxxxxxxxxxx@yahoo.com
I have a shortcut icon set to connect to my Yahoo home page using Firefox. When I shut down the day before yesterday it was working fine. Yesterday afternoon when I tried to connect I got a message "waiting for my.yahoo.com", and sometimes a message comes up that Yahoo engineers are working on the problem. I can connect and sign in to my Yahoo!Mail thru the Mail icon on the toolbar.

"Remove the Cookies" from websites that cause problems.
