To cor-el, I followed your suggestions and ultimately through the process of elimination found the problem. One of the add-ons, "Do Not Track Plus" was the culprit! In that add-on under settings a presentation of all of the sites "blocked" appear. By un-checking the "Facebook Connect button" voilà! Problem solved. The Yahoo comment tab now loads and works correctly.

cor-el - Thanks for your help and consideration. I very much appreciate it. You're a champ! ~ mitchell1568
