When I login into the yahoo mail following message displayed to me "A'utomatic page updates causing problems with your screen reader?

If you are using a screen reader and having problems using Mail, it might help to disable automatic page updates. Please note, this will also disable chat and text messaging within Yahoo! Mail. You can toggle automatic updates on and off using the link below. 'Disable automatic page updates." When I disable a automatic page updaet link the message displayed to me is as follows: Automatic page updates are disabled Re-enable automatic page updates

This started happening when I upgraded to FireFox 4. FireFox three was a dog! What do I do revert back to FireFox 2?!

There's lots of noise about this on the net but no answers from FireFox!? Jeez! I'm using Google Chrome to get to my Yahoo! email. This is a pain. Please fix!!! --and an add-on is NOT a fix!

Keep ignoring this and I'll be forced to switch to Chrome with lots of others.

Please fix as I prefer Yahoo!.

Thanks,
