I haven't been able to get into my account for two days. Maybe it is a glitch due to recent changes they made. Is everybody having this problem?

Yahoo suffers second slowdown
June 18, 2004

SOME Yahoo! websites and services slowed for the second time in less than a week last night as the internet giant worked to resolve a hardware problem.

In the latest glitch, users may have experienced a slow response from the company's servers for about two hours overnight. Some people also reported that they were unable to log onto Yahoo's instant messaging program.

The company released a statement describing the problem as an "isolated hardware-related issue".

It was unrelated to Tuesday's incident in which Yahoo and several other websites were sluggish or entirely inaccessible for two hours.

Akamai Technologies, which is supposed to provide services to improve the reliability of large websites, claims the problems were caused by a "sophisticated" attack.

I still cannot get into Yahoo mail. I just looked through the "Help" section of Yahoo and could not find information on anybody to contact about the problem. My husband and mother have both been able to use Yahoo mail this weekend from the same computer that I was using, which has made we wonder if it is just my account that is screwed up.
