Sometimes when I try to enter a comment I get an error message stating Unable to process your request. Please try again later. When I inspect the element it tells me my comment was redirected to https://s.yimg.com which does not match the Yahoo address it was sent to hence the error message.. How can I block https://s.yimg.com from redirecting my comments.. Anyone ?

The server at s.yimg.com supplies many important components of Yahoo pages. If you block it completely, you'll experience a lot of breakage.

How often does this problem occur?

Next time, copy your unsaved comment to a safe place (e.g., a Notepad document) and reload the page bypassing the cache. You can do that using Ctrl+Shift+r or holding the Shift key while clicking the reload arrow in the address bar.

If you get back to where you were and paste the comment and try to submit it, any improvement?
