Can you connect to other sites ? Does the Yahoo Mail site works in Safe mode (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode) and/or with a new profile (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager)

On my computer, Yahoo! Mail comes up but it is not possible to reply to messages, as that Java box does not appear. I use Yahoo! Mail Basic. I have to use MSIE to check my e-mail; this is a travesty.

I cannot check my Yahoo mail using my FireFox Browser.
When I click on my Yahoo Mail I get this error:
"The page isn't redirecting properly" "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete"
My Yahoo works GREAT on Apple's SAFARI (I haven't tried it on MS Explorer yet.
This started simultaneously with 2 events:
   1.  I upgraded to FireFox 2.0.0.13
   2.  I downloaded Apples SAFARI Browser.
I was blaming Apple until I read these other reports. YOU REALLY SHOULD FIX THIS!!
