I can open a slideshow of images but when I click out of it, it no longer enables Yahoo again, just gives a grey veil over the screen and nothing can be clicked on or is responsive; I have to exit and re-enter Yahoo Groups to access my messages. I used to have no problem and when Yahoo suggested I use another Internet browser, I used Internet Explorer and the problem was solved. They suggested i contact you about the problem. Tried all your fixes and updated everything and still no go, and yes, I did sign out and go on again for changes/updates to take place
