Does this URL work like it should for you? - Strange Problem

[Aves]

Does this link take you to the Yahoo! Mail login page or show a blank page with only the Yahoo! copyright info?

When I am in Win98: SE on IE 5 the link works and I can log into my mailbox.

When I am in Win2K Pro on IE 6 the link works and I can log into my mailbox.

When I am in WinXP Pro on IE 6 the link does not work and I only get the page copyright info.


I can't for the life of me figure out why.



In case you wonder why I care and don't just use the mail.yahoo.com URL, it's because the main link doesn't support IE's autocomplete feature with username and passwords. The link I posted earlier does.

Yep, didn't make a difference.

It appears that I am not the only one with the problem and it isn't only on XP either.

Works for me in XP Pro. Thanks for the link. I like auto-complete. 🙂

Doesn't work for me. All I get is the copywrite. (IE6.0.2600.0000.xpclnt_qfe.010827-1803 WinXP Pro)
