when I try to access stories from the main page of yahoo news...this is what I get...Sorry, Bad Request. Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.
Very infrequently it will allow the page to open but 90% of the time I get the error message. It also happens if I click on a link to a yahoo news story from another web site. I had tried Firefox 4, but it was giving me all kinds of errors so I reverted back to 3.6
