I cant open up Yahoo home page. Error message says I need IE 6 or higher or Firefox 2 or higher to view.?
I had the most recent browsers when this problem began, but I reinstalled both browsers anyway with most recent versions which are Yahoo optimized to see if this would fix the problem, but the help was only temporary. I got Yahoo home a few times and that was it. I can't log onto a few other websites without getting the same kind of message. My system info is reporting the correct version of browsers.
What happened and how can I fix the problem?
