  • Answer:

    The problem is due to the large files that are being download, if you have dial-up and your computer is not one of the latest system, you will be encountering problem of delayed messages. Are you using window blinds or alien guise or some other window enhancement program? e.g. programs that add extra buttons like transparency and keep always on top or change the look of the windows in anyway (not including standard XP themes) if so disable it and yahoo should work. Do a search on http://www.wackyb.com >for window blinds This is sometimes a flash issue, make sure you have download and installed flash from Internet explorer (not any other browser) >http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/.> Try running your disk cleanup program...It can be found in system tools...also,delete cookies/temp files and clear history from internet options place as follows To delete address bar history as it also helps, follow this path.
