    ok when you click a link withing your yahoo mail it gets a little screen in the top of the browser that says "loading ...." and somtimes it will finish loading but it just has the page remain the same so i have to hit refresh (F5) to bring up the new page it especialy does it when i choose to delete or open an email

    I also prefer Opera and use Yahoo for mail.
    Just checked mine with no problems.
    Have you recently changed any settings? Sounds like a configuration problem.

    Are you using Classic Yahoo mail or the All-New version? Look around the Yahoo mail page for a link to switch over, it should be greyed out at the top-right of the page.

    I have the Classic, and in the top left corner is a spot that says "See the New Yahoo".
    If you don't see that on yours, there is a good chance you already have the new version.

    This makes me think of a "bug" caused by the anti-phishing feature in IE that would affect Firefox.

    I cant find any info right now as im not at my desk, but try [temporarily] disabling any anti-phishing features and see if that affects it ;)
