Suddenly MANY re-login requests - probably not cookie problem?

Some days there are no re-login requests from Yahoo. Most days, I will get many ... sometime 3 or more in a row with no chance to visit the inbox in-between. Purging cookies did not help. It got worse at about the time I upgraded to IE 7, so I went back to FireFox. I am having the problem with it, too. I have not recently changed antivirus (AVG free), firewall (ZoneAlarm Pro) nor changed by security settings. I cannot continue to use Yahoo unless I can get this resolved. I do have antispyware installed, but the resident components are disabled. (WinXP SP2 w/all updates)

Yahoo has been having major server issues since at LEAST Jan. 10, seemingly just with particular servers. And what's happening to you is unfortunately one of the many problems that people are having because of them, and Yahoo doesn't seem to be in any particular hurry to solve them. And the problems are not just w/Yahoo Beta or IE7; I and others not using either are having similar problems. But both do have more problems; if you're using Beta, it's still in the testing stage and has a lot of problems, so go back to original Yahoo mail, and the same w/IE7, go back to IE6 until MS irons out all the problems.

I've had to use another acct.provided free by my ISP to send/rcv important e-mails since Jan. 10, and it's been working just fine the whole time. If you don't have another acct.w/another provider besides Yahoo, I'd strongly advise to get one; it makes a good backup in case of problems like this.
