Who has it? I've had it forever!! I have loved it for it's fast,easy and reliable use. It has been my primary web based e-mail choice now for about 10 years. But the past 6 months I have been totally frustrated with it. It takes an eon to load now. Trying to compose or reply to an e-mail it more than like locks or the page crashes on me. I know alot of you are gonna say it's my computer. But I have no issues with other web base e-mails like Hotmail or AOL. Is it just me or does anyone else been having this same problem? I'm really considering using another one of mine other web based e-mail accounts!!

try getting into your account on a different computer other than your own - if it works fine then you know its your computer...if it crashes then its your account...


they teach that in pc troubleshooting 101.......

I just realized and tried something. They have Yahoo Classic and the New Yahoo mail. I currently have the New Yahoo mail which I downloaded a few months back. I switched back to the Yahoo Classic and low and behold, it worked like a charm!! Not sure if the New Yahoo is a beta program or not? It has alot more features than Classic but it's not as fast in loading. Jason, since you seem to be the PC guru. If I found out it was my computer, what would you have recommended??
