My yahoo mail was working fine with my AOL dial up connection. But
right after i installed Verizon DSL... i checked my Yahoo Mail.. it
wont let me open my inbox. I got up to after signing in to yahoo mail.
But when i clicked inbox to see my mails. It load really slow and
after a minute or two IE says page cannot be displayed. Firefox said
....connection timed out.. somthing like that. I tried putting
http://mail.yahoo.com in trusted sites from IE... it still nothing... i
checked my mail on my friends computer it works fine. My first blame
is definitely my new DSL Verizon.. it was working fine till i installed

I sort of doubt it is the DSL itself. |
My best WAG is this is a cookie problem, although one normally gets
some sort of warning page from Yahoo about enabling cookies. Given
the problem appears in both IE and Firefox, I'm wondering if you
installed, at the same time you went to DSL, any separate software
that would interfere with cookies or email, like anti-virus,
anti-spyware or firewall software.

Try configuring your router for MTU of 1492. If you don't have a
router, get one yesterday! |

Same thing happened to us, using a router. One computer we could get
email, send and recieve, the other one we could not. As William said
change it to 1492, on ours we had to set it to 1400 |
