Have any MyYahoo users noticed any problems lately?

[T Roosevelt]

I use MyYahoo as my home page, and they recently upgraded it, adding certain services and a new look.

But I've noticed that when I have that page open (I use mozilla, but it's the same with IE, and doesn't matter which tab), it sucks up most if not all of my available CPU time, and uses additional memory (I'm using XP, and looking at the Task Manager).

Anybody else having these problems? And how the hell do I email yahoo help? Apparently that contact info is a secret, since I can't seem to find it anywhere on their site.

1. me too ... that really sucks ...

i wonder what kind of stuff they are running on that page ... whatever it is, i don't like it ...

if this persists, i'll be dumping Yahoo!!

2. I just sent them a bug report.

You might too. If they get enough complaints, they may actually do something about it. Otherwise, I'll be with you looking for another home page...

3. seems better now ...

they must have been running some serious javascript on there ... i wonder if it was one of the ads causing the problem ... i've seen that type of thing with doubleclick ads ...

probably a good idea to keep monitoring this for a few days ...

thanks for the heads up ...

4. Mine keeps showing one of those Discover drop-down ads

I wonder if that's the problem...
