Loading ...Some of our Australian and New Zealand readers may find this post helpful if you have been experiencing problems with the All-New Mail using the Firefox 2 browser.
Ryan, Community Manager for Yahoo! Mail in the United States, posted the following on the Yahoo! Mail Blog:
We’ve received reports from some users that they are experiencing problems getting their inbox to load completely in the All-New Yahoo! Mail. Our engineers have been sleuthing around and discovered that if you are running Firefox 2.0.0.18, and have the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin 1.0 installed as a browser add-on, you may run into this too.
Without getting too deep into the nitty-gritty, it seems that the plugin is preventing certain requests from reaching their intended destination within the browser. Fortunately there are two easy ways to resolve the problem.
- Go to Tools > Add-ons, find RealPlayer plugin, Disable or Uninstall, restart Firefox.
- Upgrade to Firefox 3.
Either of those options will do the trick.
Happy Emailing,
Kate - Yahoo!7 Mail Team
