Uhm...I think what you're trying to say is that if it works then it doesn't need fixing.

That's why I still use IE 6. No bitching from me...that's for sure. Plus...if I took the time to put a new browser on here...I have two females that use this comp that'd be bitching and moaning about some insignificant thing as a new browser.

Which really isn't a good reason...but it's a followup to a fact that IE works...maybe not to other people...but it does for me...sorry for being technologically inept.

Here's the thing though...wtf does this have to do with Yahoo! anyways?

then invite me. bitch.

I saw that happen too. I use IE, and it works for me. Problem is, Yahoo seems to be a bit slower now.. and the tables look funny. The biggest problem I have is not being able to download any attachments anymore. It shows up as empty zips and stuff.. so I'm looking into a new provider. :\

And the #1 advantage that Google's ads have compared to Yahoo's...

Text-based ads don't slow down/crash your browser. (Trust me, some of those Flash ones... Oh boy. )

I'll grab a Gmail account when it goes public and be stuck with Colleen384729SSJ.

Uh read the first post , it's explaining how Yahoo is giving out email accounts with more space than before but yet they use IE only code. IE does work for some people but for me it was just a pain in the ass what with my homepage constantly changing and constant popups and yes i did scan for spyware and adware much of the time, when i switched to mozilla these problems dissappeared and the rate that I accumalated spy/ad ware was cut in half if not more. Plus overall I just like mozillas feel better. I wasnt calling you technologically inept I meant IE is just more of a securirty risk.

Ill have to get me one of those Gmail accounts, Google has always been smart about their ads so its no wonder they're services are prefered.

That happened me, well actually just my sister. She wasn't that positive about a new browser. XP

But the other one liked it more.

Go to eBay if you want invites.

But be warned - some people are making some NICE cash off of them. Heck, even at $10-15 an invite... money for nothing indeed.

[edit] Interesting compatibility list.
The compatibility list is a static page; you normally get to it by being redirected from the small login box. That's why it says that.

Geeheehee. I got my invite from some totally random person. (thumbs nose)

Although when I get some invites, I'll share. (I suppose.) Just a matter of when that'll be.

Another thing I wish I had, Gmail sounds good. I'm still using AOL mail, and probably will be... for a long, long time. At least it works.
