Do you have a software firewall? If you do then some software may have changed a setting or two. Try looking into your firewall settings. Most should have a place for you to add URL's as trustworthy. Add Yahoo! to the list. Also something could have changed your browser settings as well. But first delete all your cookies, close out your browser then restart it again and see if you can get to Yahoo!.

Software gives me a headache.
