Firefox is blocking me out of my Yahoo Mail account. It is asking me for verification of identity by offering to send an SMS or voice mail to my American cell phone which is not currently active because I am in Spain. Can yu help me?

Sorry, but there is nothing we can do for you. You have to contact them to get this sorted out. Always remember to check your profiles everywhere you have one and keep it up to date.

Interesting, I contacted Yahoo and they said the block was put on by Firefox.

The only way that Firefox would block a site is if you set the block. Or, there is a security issue. Check your add-ons and anti-virus (and other such programs) for such a block.

What exactly is the error? Please post a screen shot.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift (Mac Options) > key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
