<< Your boy CutMeMick needs help >>

I'm having trouble with my notebook.

I can't open my e-mails on my yahoo account. :(

I log on and then go to "Inbox" but once I click on a e-mail it'll stall there like it's doing something but it won't open. :(
I only have this problem when doing that on yahoo.

Then I was on Puyas thread where apparently he posted some picture IN his post but all I see is small boxes with a red X on them.

I asked a friend of mine about the e-mail issue he said that I needed to go to my add/remove programs and find javascripts that are there and run all and any javascripts that I had he said something about sometimes having updates of certain programs that never actually or get updated and that he's done that before.
Well I took my ass to add/remove and to my dismay theres a couple of javascripts there now I don't know if what he's saying is true or not cause what if I start running programs and updating all kinds of stuff...

Anyone have any idea on what I need to do?

Thanks in advance. :)

Who Am I? ???

Maybe I should change my 'Flux Capacitor' :-\

I need to go buy one at my local PC World and ask them if they have any with the 'Go ready stripes' on it.

Sorry Mick I have no idea what your problem is.












Hope this helps. :)

Look for a java update you might not have. Other than that, you'd need a professional to help you. ;)

which browser do you use? I'd suggest downloading firefox if you haven't and try it with that.. or use IE if you use firefox..

also it could be a cookies problem.. make sure your cookies are enabled cause yahoo doesn't work for me cause i disable cookies, so i have to use IE when i use yahoo..

umm.. those are the simple ways to solve the problem.. they also may be real obvious and you may have tried them already..

worse comes to worse maybe re-install your browser.. seems like a simple browser problem and you can fix anything with re-installing.

I use IE.....I'll check the cookies thing next.

I think re-installing it will be my last resort...

Thanks RP33 for your help.

For being the simplest invention ever made, they really do have alot of problems.

This is the 1st issue I've have with my notebook ever since I bought it about a year ago.

Cookies are/were enabled.
So it's not that.

It could be your ActiveX controls mick.

When you try and and access the page look to see if at the top of the screen you have a yellow bar with click me written in it. If so click on and select allow activex.

That's a very common cause of pages not opening.

Computers in general. Any given one has upwards of 50,000 code errors but only a select few are significant.

IE is garbage. Not enough protection. I use to have all kinds of problems with IE. I now use FireFox on my PC and Opera on my laptop. I don't have any problems any more

IE is fine, you just need a virus protection program that is worth a damn with it.

Sorry mIkc,no idea man!

That and stop looking at garbage/porn sites

I.E is the best.

Who are you? ( I still don't get what that's about, but I'll throw it in there)

I can't offer you any practical advice, but I also have issues with yahoo, in that every time I try and delete any emails, Firefox crashes, but that's the only site I've ever had any problems with. My advice...find another email. ;)

download and install firefox and also download spyboy (its free to download google it) and scan your laptop for spyware and adware.

Who are you?

Thats what you get for frequeting www.igetfistedbypirates.com

and www.volunteerforalienabduction.com

Hahaha!!! I have the same problem with my email on the work computer, I just refresh and it works&#160; ;)

Sorry, brother. I've been lazing around all day on the sofa.

I have no idea how to solve your problem.

mick, I had the same experience before. The problem is with yahoo.

If you still have a problem, download the mozilla firefox browser here :

www.mozilla.com

OK...

So you guys are saying I should remove Internet Explorer and then install Fire Fox?

What are the pros & cons about Firefox?
Do I really need it?

What should I be aware of when deleting Internet Explorer?
HOW IN THE FUCK DO I RE-INSTALL IT? ???

You can't remove internet explorer its built into windows.

Just do what I said, check for a little yellow bar at the top of the screen when you try to access and click inside it to enable active x and any popup pages.

Hope this helps :)

im shit on computers mate. my lap top is funky also .. with spyware and malus type shit going on.. gonna have to firestorm the hard drive and reload the software it looks.... the problem is i don't know how to reload the sprint wireless accress shit. maybe i let the wife do it? maybe you should do the same mate? hehehe

So many suggestions to what should be a simple solution.

A lot of the information is good basic solutions.

Yes try another browser. Opera or Firefox are great alternatives to Internet Explorer.
I am assuming you are using windows XP with a service pack 2 on Internet Explorer 7?
I am guessing judging by what bilbo was saying.

Those RED X's you are talking about, are a Internet Explorer browser overflow handler that totaly sucks azz. I have not used Internet Explorer in years. Although version 7 is good or should I say better than IE6.

The cookies are the first thing to check. Even though you have cookies enabled, your cookie setting might be too high? Try lowering it.
Not sure if Java and Active X affect Yahoo or not but I believe they do and should be enabled in order for you to be able to access yahoo mail.
When I use to have system restore on my pc, and something would break, as a last resort, I would do a system restore to a time I know I was able to use something that suddenly stopped working. I don't have system restore anymore so I fix everything I break or might phuk up. lol.

I would try a different browser first. It's no big deal, it's just like having more than one car. All browsers basicly behave the same. I some times have 5 or 6 browsers installed for testing purposes.

Question, when you go to yahoo mail, are you getting any warinings/error messeges? Look for them.

I don't know what else to tell you right now as everyone here has already tried to pitch in as they feel they could.

PS. I just saw that bilbo posted some info about Yahoo working on their servers and that they are phuking with the beta accounts or some shiet. I don't and wont use the beta version of yahoo mail. It sucks. Maybe you are using the beta version of yahoo's mail service? I am using the original yahoo mail and I wont switch to their new service until it's final and it looks as though they are moving in that direction.

I do however notice you said you can access the mail from on pc but not from another? That would nullify the above statement and again leads me to believe something is not set right on your pc and or something has been corrupted both are very strong possibles. >:mad

you can have both. I have IE and Firefox at the same time. No need to uninstall IE.

the spyware thing could also be true. scan your computer for spyware.

I did scan it for Spyware I also have Norton Anti Virus that runs a scan every Friday and nothings come up on it.

Well I downloaded FireFox as some of you instructed and I still couldn't open my yahoo e-mail. :(

A friend told me that I needed to do a back up on it. He told me to:

Restart notebook
Push F5
Push F8
Choose 'Safe Mode With Networking'
Click on 'No' on the desktop message
Choose a date from the calendar of the LAST day that I remember it working properly


Does anyone know if this is a good idea?

Thanks to everyone for your help.

do you have the program to restore your computer? It's easier to restore your computer to an earlier period.

Follow these instructions:

Go to control panel, click on performance and maintenance (you should be in category view not in classic view), click restore (found in your left panel), then select the radio button "restore my computer to an earlier time", then click on next.... and so on.

If you still have a problem, I suggest you use Hijack Scanner by BulletProofSoft.com, they have a free edition program.

Whoa hold on there a second Mick...First of all who said anything about you being anyones Boy ???

Just kidding ya mate CC...

I had a problem like that once...not a single thing in yahoo would open....

this is how I fixed it for me...can't say that is what will work for yours but can't hurt?

do a disc clean up...after the disc clean up go to your network and internet connections in the control panel, click on internet options at the bottom,,,,in your browsing history click delete,,,a pop up will show saying delete browsing history...click delete all on the bottom...this wioll clear out cookies and all....but does not remove anything serious...after that do a disc defragment,,,,then reboot......

has worked for me several times.,...if you have done all this then i am an idiot and ignore me :D

;D CC#684.....

Thanks Daxx will certainly give it a shot.

never used yahoo email and the first thing that came to mind is using a email program to download your emails to your computer without going to yahoo so i just had a quick search to see if it can accessed vis outlook express and it can if its a paid account but if its a free account it can't

but i just googled this for you and it works with free yahoo email accounts...

http://ypopsemail.com/

but be aware i have not tested this link and only discovered it 3 minutes ago... as its your birthday mate ;)

Happy B Day Mick ! I have tossed many a computer across the room because of glitch or virus.. might need to firestorm the HD.. best of luck !
