Problem with yahoo mail!

Aug 7, 2011 6:55AM PDT

Hi all;
I have Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8, and whenever I open my yahoo mail and try to preform an operation it sais:
"interent explorer cannot cannot open the Internet site: http://ca.mg5.mail.yahoo.com
OPeration aborted."

It opens twice. Then when I click Ok twice i can pereform any opeartion, but the minute I cnahge it it apperas again and it is so annoying.
Does anyone what this is? I scanned my computer, found no threats. I ONLY have this problem with yahoo mail. BTW I have the new version of yahoo mail.

Thanks so much in advance.

Generally yahoo mails are not too good as compare to google mail A/cs and any other but if you faced a problem then you should check the account settings of your profile. You can see there is some error related to your A/c.

IE problems

IE problems can often be traced back to bad Add-ons.

Look through your IE Add-ons, (Tools > Manage Add-ons), and begin an elimination test by disabling add-ons then testing.
