Yahoo only isn't working. We can't read / reply to emails. we tried your existing fixes

more options

Since the end of January when Yahoo started experiencing all the problems in the UK, we have had problems with Yahoo mail. It is the only application we have problems with. It started being slow and giving 'network connection errors'. Now we cannot read nor reply to emails - new or old. Yahoo help suggestions claim everything to be 'fixed' this week. We cannot see a difference. I've tried all Yahoo suggestions. All existing settings are as they want. I am old fashioned to my mind when I was working in these things 20 years ago this has all the symptons of a yahoo server data management problem but I might be wrong and will try anything to fix it. This is what we know so far: 1. Internet Explorer browser worked 'properly' for ten minutes when tried yesterday and then restored all the old problems (hence I have paid a lot more attention to caching etc) 2. From asking around, people using firefox have far less problems than anyone else. Yesterday evening using firefox on a different computer the account existed problem free for an hour. today using our laptop we have the problems 3. we tried everything on the cache and history and graphics we saw on the other questions . we now get a scripting error vis-a-vis the script is running slowly: https://s.yimg.com/zz/combo?ng/s/php/mail/js/launch_54_4398.js:2 Any suggestions? I apologise for bothering the good folk of the mozilla community with what seems to be a yahoo problem but no-one else seems to have either brains or commonsense. All help is appreciated.

It may happen due to the maintenance of their servers
