I have IE 6 at work and can not connect to the chat portion. So you must need to have IE7 or higher to get it to work.

Mark--you should try Mozilla Firefox. Works great and is more stable than IE (just about anything out there is more stable than IE) and a little more secure. It's free to download and setup similar to IE7 so it should be easy to transition. The current version is 3.0.something. Cant remember off the top of my head. If you have any questions, feel free to email me and I'll be glad to help.

Short of installing a more recent browser, you might be able to get away with installing the latest version of Flash from here:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

you'll need to restart your browser once you install to see if it helps.

I too have IE ver 6 at work and was not able to access Chat. Here at home I use Google Chrome and can access Chat fine.

As I said, if you are using IE6, try installing the latest Flash software from the link I posted above.

One more update: it turns out Yahoo email IS fixed after all - the person I asked to check couldn't see his SPAM folder but the messages were there.
