I'm been using Tenfourfox version 45.4.0 for some time now and today I've been unable to open yahoo email. The entire loading process of yahoo is extremely slow, something else that is new today. I'm aware of no changes to my internet speed. Using safari, I am able to access all my email accounts. Any ideas as to what's going on with my machine?

    Thank you so much for taking an interest in my strange problem. I had lots of issues yesterday, a very slow machine, I lost the internet, and I couldn't access yahoo email using Tenfourfox.

    I finally got the email page to open, with almost random key strokes. I had hoped that perhaps the Tenfourfox sw had a bug. I doubted it but I hoped. I could always access the email page using my old Safari browser so I knew that the page was still functional.

    I have little confidence that the net will stay connected or that I can access the web page when I open Tenfourfox. My machine is still very slow. I'll get back to you either way.

    Thanks again

    My speed problems remain but the fault seems to lie with something other than with the Tenfourfox software. I was eventually able to open yahoo email using the Tenfourfox browser. It was just very slow, like minutes, to open. Power cycling seems to do nothing. I've talked to a tech at the ISP and they are sending me a new modem. Once I confirm that my problems persist, I will have to conclude that my machine has a virus manifesting with a severe slow down in my web processing. I guess I'll have to buy a new machine sooner rather than later.

    Thanks for you interest.
