    Default anyone visit yahoo.com lately?

    Last day or two, whenever I try to access Yahoo! , I get a site that says Yahoo!. Seems kind of odd that there would be the letter m before the www like that. I could understand it being after the www, but not before. Is this happening to anyone else?

    edit: OK the URL for Yahoo seems to now be m.Yahoo!. anyone else notice this


    edit: never mind. The way Saddos automatically formats URLs is a pain in the ass

    The M is for mobile but what you experienced was a test by yahoo who were testing a new site layout/design

    Some Yahoo Users Noticing New Home Page Design

    It does however look as though they switched back to the old layout, if you can still see the new layout and still get sent to m.Yahoo!
    you might need to clean out history, cookies, cache.

    It is a good idea to do this regularly if you have:
    a. a wife
    b. a girlfriend
    c. a parent who checks your PC
    d. a PC that is acting slow, and getting low on memory.

    Thanks bud. I still get the new layout with the m on the url. At least now I know there is a reason. Personally, I think that fucking with their own site like this is not good business. IMO it shows a certain disregard for the useers of their site. Oh well, no big deal, I guess.

    I don't think it's a language setting cause the site's still in English. And I have tried deleting all my cookies and also clearing the cache. And I still can only get m.www,yahoo.com, even when i type in the proper URL, Yahoo!, manually. And I don't like it.

    I would recommend going to FileHippo.com - Download Free Software and getting ccleaner (crap cleaner) making sure you check all boxes and settings have the security passwords to NSA 35.. that will clean your machine - good and hard.

    The m(DOT)yahoo.com is a subdomain of Yahoo and is always on and off for beta (testing) reasons.

    I would suggest you join Google movement. It does most things in a jiffy and Yahoo is no longer in the same league since they offered microsoft to buy them out after rejecting the first offers.. domain-b.com : Yahoo asks Microsoft to improve takeover offer

    Regarding Cache and cookies, get ccleaner from FileHippo.com - Download Free Software and in advanced settings check the maximum security passes deletion
