a000_cu · 05-16-2009, 10:25 PM

hi
Software: WinXP SR-3, Firefox 3.0.10 , Dell xps 1530.

I cann't open yahoo mail main page within Mozilla firefoxe .
I've tried cleaning history and so on.
What should I do now? Do you have any idea ?
I can connect to other sites and pages. I can open yahoo mail in IE.
I just have problem with " mail .yahoo.com" Following you can see the error page.

Thank you

This is the message:

address Not Found

Firefox can't find the server at login.yahoo.com.

The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.

* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. "ww.mozilla.org" instead of "www.mozilla.org")
* Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.
* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.
* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.

Hi when you say you cleared history Did you go Tools/Options/Privacy tab/Settings/then set to clear Browsing history, Download history, Saved form and search history,Cache,Cookies,Offline web site data, then click OK then Clear now then OK then close down Fire fox and start up again. If that works you might want to go back and put everything back as it was or as you would like it to be.

No problem I'm glad it helped and thanks for getting back and letting us know how you got on.
It would be good if you could go to the Thread Tools menu at the top of this page and mark this thread as solved that way it will save members time.
