    problem acct yahoomail in xp after using fedora

    hi! im a newbie to linux. just thought of installing a dual boot when i saw the computers in school doing it.

    anyway, i installed fedora 7 on my computer. logged in to my primary account on yahoo in fedora. when i rebooted my pc and used xp, i cant access my account in yahoo anymore. well, actually i can but i cant see a thing (the address field has the rand # at the end). it's all in white. i check yahoo main, and it displays my name. however, it still displays a blank screen when i use the mail link.

    please help. it's my primary account. i use it for school and other important business. thanks in advance.

    by the way, i can access my other account. one i didn't access while in fedora.

    I don't see how its anything that Fedora would have done but i did go through and test it out by logging in from Ubuntu and trying it on windows again. I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. did you change any settings in yahoo mail? Secondly did you try logging in from Fedora again? what are you using to view it IE or Firefox?

    are you using firefox? there might have just been an issue with the site that day as well. nat and dhcp wouldnt revent port 80 traffic from coming in normally.
