Set your home page as http://mail.yahoo.com/. If you are using IE, go to Tools --> Internet Options... and then in the Home Page Address field enter http://mail.yahoo.com/.\n\nIf you want it to use over SSL (for higher security) then use https://mail.yahoo.com/.

The Yahoo toolbar does not include an address line.\n\nRight click an empty spot on your tool bar and then check Address Bar.\n\nHope this fixes it for you.

If your freind makes a yahoo account tehy can access it from any computer. Unless your talking about Yahoo DSL wanting to use the sign in page, If thats the case, Just use IE or another browser that doesnt require signing in to access the internet

i have the same problem;  have tried deleting cookies, running my anti-spyware (I use Spybot); have tried changing home page to another site (that works) and then re-applying Yahoo as home page (still won't work); every other page within Yahoo will load up (my yahoo; yahoo Mail etc)   but the main Yahoo home page refuses to load.   any suggestions???

Without knowing your operating system, it's impossible even to suggest some trial & error solutions.\n\nIn any case...\n\nYou might have turned on what is called "Active Desktop".\n\nRight click on your Desktop ( Not on your wall paper ).  If you do it correctly, you may see something like "Show Web Content" menu item in your Context Menu. UnCheck it, if it's checked already.  Also see whether "My Current Home Page" item is checked. If so, uncheck that too...\n\nOnly if "Show Web Content" is checked in the first place, You will even see the other options.\n\nAnyways, play with this and let me know if it worked.\nExhaust all options before venturing into Reinstallation...especially if you have WindowsXP\n\nGood Luck

Yahoo doesn't provide Internet Access.  Yahoo only provides the content for SBCGlobal.\n\nIf you are speaking about just changing your homepage..\nFirst go to Yahoo.com\nand then in IE, clik on  'TOOLS' then 'INTERNET OPTIONS'\nand then the button that says 'Use current' and there you go.

You need to set it as your homepage.  Go to Tools, then Internet Options.  In the General tab, type in http://www.yahoo.com.

Like they all said, but pay attention to the actual ERROR CODE Its throwin out. \n\nLIKE HTTP 404, or maybe a 505? Thats what can tell us whats\ngoing on with our internet. Also, when ever that happens do 2 things. \n\n1. Ensure the address is correct (to the best of your knowledge)\n2. Open another window / and or browser and go to yahoo.com\nand click on a couple (any) links If Yahoo comes up and your able to click around \nto non-cached (stored) pages then YOUR CONNETED to the internet.\n\nIf the address is correct, and your connected and your STILL getting these errors...\nwatch out...you may have cought a bug

try this and see if you get a login prompt (from the browser):\n\nftp://ftp.yahoo.com\n\nIf you get a login prompt then you have port 21 access

open IE- Tools _ internet option and check the home page, if it is yahoo then there is no problem.If it is not yahoo.com then change to yahoo.com\nAnother reason why this happens is, if you have an aol connection, as soon as you connect to the internet the 1st page that goes is to the homepage of the ISP. AM not sure about this, someone may give you a beter answer.

Maybe you need to have an internet connection ? I've never heard of anyone "installing yahoo" ! It's a web site you log onto, you don't install it...
