Anyone else seen this error? When attempting to log into My yahoo through Firefox 1.5 you can't get past the "user sign in". I suspect that it may be cookie related but have deleted all cookies and it still occurs.
Discussion is locked
Are you sure you didn't block cookies from Yahoo that's the problem?
It sounds like Firefox is set to block the cookies related to the Yahoo login. It may have happened accidentially along the way, or the option "unless I have removed cookies set by the site" was checked and you deleted the cookies. For instructions on how to deal with this, click here for a previous thread on the topic.
Hope this helps,

I followed the below and from the link.. Same error.
When I go to yahoo.com and click on my.yahoo, this is the url I'm directed to..
http://e.my.yahoo.com/config/my_init?.intl=us&.partner=my&.from=i
If using NoScript
left click on the blue s at the bottom of the page
allow yimg.com
allow yahoo.com
Also click on tools
click on options
click on privacy
click on cookies
check mark allow sites to set cookies.
close Mozilla Firefox. Wait 10 seconds and try it again. It should work.
Hope this helps.
