New Yahoo Page Sucks. Following me to Gmail?

How many of you hate the new, slow loading, everything is not where you like it home page on my Yahoo? I spent years putting everything where I liked it and Yahoo has unilaterilly decided to rearrange MY desk. I guess it's not MY Yahoo. It's THEIR YAHOO and they'll put my stuff where they please.

I've told them they have 5 days to give us the option to go back to the old page, or I'm moving to GMail.

Who's coming with me?

    I use gmail. The yahoo page is just looks all cluttered and has so much crap on it. I also have an account with my university so I use Outlook Express 2007 to organize my email accounts.

    MyWay at my.myway.com is like the old My Yahoo and can even import your book marks and some settings. That is where I am off to. As soon as I get all my email moved I am CLOSING everything with Yahoo. This isnt the first time they have screwed everything up for me, but it is the LAST!

    I also told them I was leaving is I couldn't revert. Plus this was after responding to their request for input on the new My Yahoo over the last few months, and after telling them it was horrible, hard to read, and way way too slow in loading and scrolling. I've been using the classic for MANY years, it is perfect, they AREN'T LISTENING and don't deserve the business.

    yahoo is simply uncooperative. all you can do is hit them where they live; maybe they'll get the idea.

    here is a place where you can get a hosts file replacement and painless installer which will prevent the download and appearance of yahoo (and many others') advertising:

    please tell your friends, and help many newbies.

    in the end, i honestly hope that yahoo comes to it's senses, but in lieu of that, i suppose that it should be more humane to hasten their consumption by microsoft. . .

    You were generous. I gave them 48 hours to provide a useful response.

    My ticket number is KMM129825984V28479L0KM.

    I will be headed to gmail for mail, and then I will have to find something simlar for news and what-not.

    I believe you and Joe W. I hate this new version. Gonna might desire to alter digital mail centers. in the event that they don't exchange decrease back...this could mark the initiating of the top of Yahoo. bear in mind AOL and Compuserve.
