Can't access my yahoo mail inbox?!

penciler2 · 12-21-2004, 10:29 PM

I am connected through LAN (ethernet/time warner). My internet works great, except my webbased email at yahoo. I can login just fine, but when I click any link within the email it takes forever to load which leads to an error page.

Is there something I need to install? Or is this all to do with my settings?

Please help

Try shutting off your firewall. See if it still gives you problems. You most likely need to change some settings in your firewall.

how do I access my firewire properties

not firewire, firewall. Are you running sygate or zone alarm?

the firewall is Netgear VPN

I did directly plug the cable modem into my comp and the connection was clear, and the problem was gone. So the real problem is within the configurations of the Firewall. I just don't know how to change nor find them.
