I am having difficulty downloading and viewing all attachments. How do I get attachments to download?

Question by Tobie: I am having difficulty downloading and viewing all attachments. How do I get attachments to download?

Yahoo is getting stuck on the 'downloading file' window. For a few months I canceled the first download attempt and the second attempt would usually finish the download and allow me to view it. Now I can not view attachments after multiple attempts. I suspect it may be a setting somewhere like in my Norton Internet Security.

Yahoo is still having some problems at the moment. Suggested cures range from Update Adobe Flash Player and Java script to clear IE7 cache, cookies, and browsing history. Different things seem to work for different people. It's causing attachments to not show, 999 errors where it won't let you do a particular action and some people cannot send receive delete or move mail. It's not just Vista either it's happening to some of us on XP. I have been advised to use this site to view my mail, www.mail2web.com if all else fails go back to classic mail via this link. http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/dc/optout?script=no click yes when asked do you want to opt out. Hope this helps.
