Is it just me, or does anyone else on yahoo answers experience difficulty with the internet shutting down...?
It seems like I spend a lot of time scanning questions that I'd like to respond to and when I do, yahoo goes on break right when I try to submit it and/or the internet shuts down. What's up with that?!

It is possible that you have a bad cache file. Clear your history, temporary files (be patient) & cookies, then restart the computer and retry. This HELP link has instructions: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/se... .
The other thing is if you get the 'coffee break' message when you submit an answer, simply use the ▼ icon next to your BACK button to return to the question, then press F5 (refresh). Usually, your answer DID post for you -- mine usually do.

Yahoo has been doing it a lot lately! But once you hit the submit button, your answer has been posted. Just click on your profile, and you will see it just scroll down. So keep on answering. I noticed it this week!!

The internet can only handle so much memory usage before it starts to lag. That is what causes the interruptions. They're not really drinking coffee, though. It's beer.

It has been happening for about a week. It is very annoying. Good luck!!!
