Why has my.yahoo been down so much lately?

Question

I have had a couple of evenings this week where when I attempt to sign in to my.yahoo page I am just getting a blank screen with the word 'done' down below. Is anybody else experiencing this or does anybody have a suggestion or two as to what I might be doing wrong? This has not been a problem for me in the past, it is happening with both firefox and IE7, and is happening for my wife as well. I can still get to my email, and some other things by going straight to www.yahoo.com, but I am unable to get to my bookmarks and sports scores etc. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Lots of folks, like me, have had the same type probIem.  I don't have a beanie cap, but I CAN offer some humble advice that worked for me and at least one other.  This may sound rather too simple, but the tip I stumbled upon Saturday for the same problem worked like a charm. Shut down your computer (all the way, not a 'restart'), wait a couple of minutes [to let your drive come to a total stop, I suppose] and then power back up. There is no harm in trying, and I did receive a thumbs-up 'best answer' vote from another inquirer that I passed this on to. I hope this works for you, too. Blessings.....
