Yahoo is always changing their set-up. I can't sign-in and get to my email? My computer is old. Windows 98. What can I do. I need some one to help me. I am on another Computer now. But I just can't get to email can you please help?

Hey sweetie, you know what? I was just thinking of you a few minutes ago, wondering when you went then you just popped up with a discussion. Is this telepathy? If you are currently using Firefox 2 then it's up to you whether to upgrade or not. I did upgrade and I like some of the new features that came with Firefox 3. As for Yahoo, I never had any good things to say about Yahoo email... but why can't you sign in? What error did you encounter? I can access fine...

I kept working with the computer and call the tech support, they weren't that helpful, they said I have to get my computer upgraded, well I don't have the money for that now. but for some reason my computer is working now. I called two times, I might of even had a Virus who know. but when I try to sign in, I couldn't. and it mention something about Foxfire 3 I tried to download it and I couldn't it said that I have to have a 2000 PC or better. But you know Yahoo is always changing there layout. they just change it about 2 months ago. I am thinking about going with another Service. Yes I guess that was Telepathy. That happens with me a lot here. Isn't that funny? No it is strange. But I think it is a good thing! Have a good morning or night!

Do you have an antivirus program installed? Like AVG http://free.avg.com/ for instance? I would suggest you scan it for virus and kill any that appears. Also, scan for spyware using e.g. spybot http://www.safer-networking.org/ . Then do a cleanup using Crap Cleaner at http://www.ccleaner.com . Then do a defrag using this software at http://www.auslogics.com/disk-defrag . Pertaining to yahoo specifically, maybe you can try reverting to the old layout. I find that any problem I have with the new look will go away when I switch to the old one.

upgrade your OS unfortunately you will need to upgrade the computer also. the the only OS that is currently on the market for Windows is Vista, You might find a copy of XP out there but you will still need to upgrade the computer also

Over here, you can get a whole set of computer complete with LCD monitor for about 650 USD (low end)... but you will need to put aside money for it.

You can set yahoo mail up to still use the classic stile and it should work fine. You will have to do that on a different computer. Yahoo announced about a year ago that they were not going to support windows 95, 98, ME, or 2000. All because Microsoft also dropped there support for these products of yours. I hate to say this but it is coming to the time that you might need to upgrade your computer to at least widows XP and then you have to make all the other upgrades to make the computer work with XP

Yes, I do have to upgrade, I didn't know that Yahoo would not be supporting Windows 98. And I think that it is happening right now. How are you? I hope you are well!

WOW! Windows 98 is really old. I am not sure what you can do but upgrade. I know that 98 is no longer supported so there are not even any patches available. Hope things work out.

i think there is nothing with yahoo, you just need to Reinstall Your Firefox, i use windows 98 also sometimes, and i don't have any problem with it. just reinstall and see what's happen... and as the other friend said, which error you have, that will be helpful to know which thing cause the bug!!
