Where is the old yahoo desktop, how can I get it back?

All day yesterday the comments have been negative, yet Yahoo insists on forcing a

second day of this "crap" homepage down our throats.

    Yahoo staff member Nixon announced a couple of hours ago that there are no more chances to get back to the old Yahoo Homepage layout, at least not as long as you try to go to the .com page: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjYhA...

    However, there have been reports from several users that other English speaking YA countries (represented by the little flags/hyperlinks at the bottom of this page) have not switched to the new layout (yet?), so you could try those. And if you want a customizable Yahoo page check this: http://my.yahoo.com/ On that page look for "page tour" and "tutorials" bottom left to customize the page - sounds like a good alternative currently...

    I have been told to clear cache and cookies and that will do it. That answer didn't work for me. I sent Yahoo a message in the feedback box and havn't gotten a response yet.
