How can I keep my Yahoo! sessions from ending so frequently?

I am prompted to enter my password several times just to check and delete maybe 5 e-mails at the most. It says to allow cookies from yahoo!, but I'm not sure how to do this. In my internet Tools, the security is set to "Medium". Do I need to do something else? My Yahoo! options are to prompt for password once every 8 hours, but this happens several minutes within logging in.

    It is a glitch. When y was updating their program mine did that but its also common. The standard in 24 hours or entry to a feature.

    Somewhere in preferences or accout info you can set the frequency of the prompt as well.
