 Problems at Yahoo?

Regulars may note my new address; because YAHOO.COM for some reason doesn't want to make my entry easy, any more! Every time I zero in on Yahoo.com, my personal page at Yahoo, or the email login pages, my Internet Explorer ver. 6 freezes up! It started a week ago, and some nights I can slip in without freezing -- usually arond 2300 hours, US Pacific time!

They seem to be having "technical difficulties," of course; meaning they don't know how to fix whatever is wrong, or they can't fix it -- after all, it's been a week! For some businesses, that's a lifetime!!

QUESTION:

Does YOUR browser "stop responding" at any particular web site? Have you tried http://www.yahoo.com? I appreciate your responses.
