Are they Yahoo! mail attachments?

Many users have discovered all kind of problems and glitches with Yahoo! mail in Firefox when using an old bookmark saved before Yahoo!'s recent server changes.

I suggest clearing your Yahoo cookies and entering through the main page to get a better address for your current mail server.

To remove your Yahoo cookies -- save any pending work first -- call up the Cookies dialog while viewing any page on yahoo.com (or your Yahoo site). You can use either:

  • right-click the page > View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
  • Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"

In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.

Then go to one of these Yahoo addresses and click on login or mail from there:

Does that help?
