Load Mozilla Firefox and use that for your default browser.

there is something like a “no thanks, go to my inbox” button

My Yahoo mail works fine in Firefox.

Does
Firefox work? It's a free download, no harm in giving it a try if you haven't already.

Do I have no other choice but to upgrade to Internet Explorer 8?It sounds like you are using Internet Explorer 6. If this is the case, you should most definitely upgrade. IE6 was written in 2001 and it has no place in the modern web at all. More and more websites are (thankfully and rightfully) refusing to support IE6 any longer.
Firefox or Google Chrome are also good alternatives.

Mozilla Firefox - You won’t miss IE one bit.

Download Firefox. You can use it for getting your mail. I do not like how FF always wants to update itself.
I was using old Yahoo mail and I liked it. I made the mistake of click on new Yahoo mail which sucks.
Anyone know a good email that does not support libs. Yahoo, MSFT, Google, AOL are all lib lovers.

You should be using Firefox or Opera.
Explorer sucks, and it exposes you to more Ad and Spy ware.

I use Firefox and I love it.
You can download it for free.

Sheesh, thank you!!! I didn't see that the first 5 times I did it! I can only see it now that I reduced the font size. When pages are badly designed, you sometimes can't see things unless you lower the font size. Then everything shifts into place.
Thank you again!!! < :D

Yahoo’s been misloading on my some off and on the last few days—and I use Firefox.
To: my_pointy_head_is_sharp
I was having the same problem with Facebook, so I switched to Firefox.

Yes, switch over to another company’s browser.
A number of companies (Adobe Flash, Google, and Yahoo) are abandoning all support for older IE browsers.

I’ve been utilizing IE8 since Beta. Experienced no problems.
