Having to enter password for yahoo mail every time the login page loads up?
-
I've been having this problem for awhile now. I'm using Firefox v3.0.1 and every time I go to yahoo mail, I have to enter my password. I've done the following: * selected the password prompt every 2 weeks * cleared the cache * removed cookies * cleared private data * allowed mail.yahoo.com and yahoo.com cookies for the session .... you name it...and I still have to re-enter my password even if I just refresh the page...I get the "please verify your password" page and have to re-enter my password not having ended the session. Any ideas?
