What is up with yahoo answers? I get chatboxes and if I try to get rid of them they won't go.?

When I click on them they just keep moving from one place to the other on the screen. And if I answer a question suddenly yahoo is down. It happens way to much. Not to mention when I type something I will say I have 486 misspelled words. Right now it says I have 47 misspelled words....Do you see any?

    The spellchecker problem IS a Yahoo Answers issue. That is a recurring glitch you simply have to learn to ignore. Every time they fix it, it breaks again.

    The site being down may be due to a number of issues: a link in your answer, answering a question that has been deleted while you were answering, or a glitch. Sometimes, hitting the BACK key and trying again will make it work.

    Chat boxes are NOT from Yahoo Answers - those are being put there by something else. You need to turn ON your pop-up blocker - and run anti-virus AND anti-malware scans to be sure you are not infected with something.

    In the spellcheck glitch, when it says you have 47 misspelled words, count the words you have in your answer. It will be 47.

    Probably just a glitch.it will sort by itself out eventually.
