Re: my yahoo bizarre blank page done



Hi,
A few things you might try:

1. Try deleting the Temporary Internet Files folder for the affected user
account. Login as another user with administrator privileges, or from the
machine's default administrator account (startup in safe mode) and delete
the affected TIF folder from Windows Explorer. Repeat for the History
folder.

2. Have you checked for a troublesome BHO or malware?
Start with BHO Demon http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm
