Until recently, I was able to use IE-6.0 with my Yahoo e-mail account.

However Now: When I use Internet Explorer 6.0, I have the following problems with my Yahoo e-mail account:

•I am unable to forward an e-mail message. When I forward an e-mail, the contents (of the e-mail being sent) are blank.
•I am unable to attach a document. I am able to access the "Attach Files" dialog box; I am able to browse to the file I want. However, when I hit the "Attach Files" button, Yahoo will not allow me to attach the selected document.
•I am unable to save a draft of an e-mail message. I can “save a draft” of an e-mail message. When I go back and retrieve the document, the message is empty.

However, all these problems go away when I use Netscape Navigator 7.1 to access my Yahoo e-mail account.

I would prefer to use Internet Explorer for my Yahoo. (I know Internet Explorer). What IE settings do I need to adjust to be able to use IE with Yahoo and not have the above problems.

Thanks,

MarvR

Nice to see you took off the phone number. People can find you with that if they want. Not trying to be a a**hole, just trying to help!

Try installing the latest release of IE 6.
It has improvements to fix problems with Yahoo! Messenger.

What is the exact procedure to uninstall and reinstall the latest version of Internet Explorer?

First, my computer would not let me uninstall my version of Internet Explorer. It let me "revert to a previous version" or to "repair" my current version. However, it would not let me uninstall Internet explorer.

Next, what is the exact url for the latest version of Internet Explorer. When I tried to install the latest version (that I was able to identify), my computer gave me the error message that a newer version was on my computer.

Thanks,

MarvR
