When I try to load yahoo, the website or my yahoo mail it keeps giving me a Cycle Prohibited page with: Description: Could not process your request for the document because it would cause an HTTP proxy cycle. Please check the URL and your browser's proxy settings. I've tried going in and resetting my proxy preferences, and while it shows that it saved them, it hasn't changed anything and I still can't access my email. I'd really like to get rid of google chrome, but if I can't get mozilla to access my email I'll be forced to keep it just for my email. Help!

If you are using a bookmarked link then go to the main Yahoo site and navigate from there to the wanted email page.
