This is the error message I get when I try to bookmark a page. "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function" Then the save as bookmark screen will pop up so I can select where I want it saved and as what name and this message pops up, "A problem occured while trying to save the bookmark. Please try again later." This has been happening for many weeks. I have updated all plugins. I really like saving pages to the yahoo bookmarks so I can use them on other locations.

Yahoo is redoing their bookmarks implementation and currently you can't save new bookmarks. You may have to wait until October.


The oRoot.enable issue can be caused by the McAfee Site Advisor extension
