Anyone else having major issues with Yahoo?
Is is possible there's a virus or something that has infiltrated Yahoo? I've noticed every other time I try to log onto Yahoo Mail I get "secure/unsecure" messages, and now I'm getting repeated notifications of "best answer" on the same question. I've received over 50 notifications from the same answer! This happens regardless of the computer I'm trying to log on from, be it home, library, or a friend's house. Is anyone else having this problem and have you received any word from Yahoo on why this is all happening?

I've gotten 61 emails from yahoo for one answer and 23 for another... Now that you mention it - I did get the secure/unsecure message when I tried to log onto yahoo yesterday at home. I figured it was because it was on my new laptop. I didn't get it when I got on at work though - possibly because I was already logged in. I don't think it's a virus; it could be a DDoS attack, though, from someone trying to bog down their systems.
