After Logging into Yahoo with My I.D. & Password, a page popped-up stating, “If you are seeing this page, your browser settings prevent you from automatically redirecting to a new URL. Please click here to continue”…I click and nothing happens . I have Windows 98 and have not changed anything. Need Help!

Internet explorer…update: it is possible this maybe a Yahoo problem. I received an email from another yahoo user who is also having issues, but not browser problems. I am still concerned about the browser issue I described above.

I just logged in and got this message:

Sounds like they launched without testing properly, and screwed up their settings.
Yahoo mail sucks. If you want a Gmail invite, just ask.
