Funny you should mention a problem, but my problem is not with Yahoo, it is trying to move around on this board.  I try to click on a message and going nowhere.

I only have Yahoo for a secondary email as I prefer Gmail, but I just checked it and except for being full of spam it's working fine. HTH

Gave up Yahoo many year ago because of all the spam and ads, its kind of like AOL.
I do gmail through outlook. ;D

It's strange the new log in code sent from Yahoo does not work,then I get a pop up ad from a out fit that will maintain and fix the account for a $59.00 per year subscription,then of course Yahoo has no phone number for customer support

I get problems with all email accounts from time to time. Last time is was hotmail and the time before, yahoo. Gmail never gave issues until I went iPad. Now I get them occasionally.

Agree with Niles you have been Phished to get your info to get into your system or it is Malware.

Go to "Malwarebites.com" and get the free download and it will clean the system of it all but the free one is only good for 14 days and then it cost 39.00 per year but it works. ;D

adblockerplus.org,  IS A GOOD OPEN SOURCE (free ONE)

To Geoff's point a couple of days' ago.  I did end up restarting the bbs server (our forum) yesterday, so hopefully that will fix that particular issue.

Best Regards, Phil

Before I put in MBytes I was getting all kinds of those fake ads and help sites that were phishing or trying to. Then after putting it in they all went away. I use Firefox & chrome because  The edge was really being wonky and just gave up with it.
