Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

I am having the same problem reported by Thomas in another question. IE7 keeps shutting down Yahoo mail.?

This is been happening for just about a week or so. Sometimes I can read a message before it happens, but it happens eventually every time I go to the mail page. This does not happen on any other site or on any other Yahoo page. Just the mail page. It is very frustrating and I hope Yahoo can figure out what is happening. Obviously, I am not the only one having this problem.

    I think the problem is Internet Explorer itself not Yahoo Mail.Internet Explorer often

    freezes up,doesn't respond or it even says that it's not working and has to close

    down.This from my own experience.You could try updating the adobe flash player,

    but if that doesn't work the problem is the browser itself.

    Instead try another web browser that is more stable,faster and able to work better,

    such as Firefox,Chrome,Safari or Opera.Also clear the browsing history

    by pressing Ctrl,Shift & Delete together on the keyboard.This works for Internet

    Explorer,Firefox and Chrome.This helps to free up more memory in these browsers

    so they run better.

    You can also Access Yahoo mail on your mobile phone if you have one.

    It's a fast,reliable and efficient way to using yahoo mail.

    Data needs to be in the phone otherwise it will use the credit in the phone contract or

    prepaid plan.More information from the site here :

    Hope that helps you,Tidus
