Yahoo mail displaying incorrectly

[mujahid7ia]

My Yahoo mail, one on comuter (the one in my computer specs) displays correctly in every browser, IE, Opera7, Mozilla Firefox... all the lines and blue stuff are gone and the forward buton doesnt work and everythings just generally messed up.. i really need to get this fixed because it is extremely annoying, here's a screen:




does anyone know what's wrong?

happens on any Yahoo! account, on this computer.
Other comps using same router and net conn. are fine...

I would delete all my temp internet files and set internet options to default under the advanced tab.

I had that happen once but it was the server side not my computer

[mujahid7ia]

I've tried that but it didn't work, and i thought so because the browsers use diff. temp dirs and options...
thanks anyway though

any other suggestions...
i just clean installed a few months back, and really don't want to again...

Probably not it, but worth a shot. Try changing the font size in IE. Another option is installing IE from scratch. If you've cleared cache and history, there's not a whole lot else left.

This is a long shot but.... You running any kind of ad blocking software? I see the pics are missing. I ran into a similar problem on my site. Norton ad blocker was blocking any file that was in certain folders. For example I had my main title images in a folder called banners. It blocked them even though they were part of my site and not ads.

Well, size isn't the problem, but the lines and stuff aren't appearing. It occurs in all three browsers, but I'll try reinstalling them all anyway...

No, I'm not using any ad-blockers (except Google Toolbar in IE, and Opera does it automatically, but these features were on long before this problem started occurring). Using your suggestion, however, I tried shutting down various programs and trying, but no luck.

This is becoming a very frustrating problem, for me as well as other users of this PC.

Is it only yahoo mail that does this?

If I were to hazard a guess, I would think that the CSS (cascading style sheets) aren't loading up for some reason...

That's why I asked about the Norton ad blocker. If the CSS file is in one of those folders the browser won't load it. Mujahid7ia, I'm not referring to pop up blockers. If your running norton or Mcafree or any other virus software you might want to look to see if you have them set for blocking ads.

no, i found out alltheweb.com also looks weird




CSS sheets? how would I fix that?


I use NOD32 and it has no ad blocker, and I tried shutting down all Nod32 anyway Processes but the problem stil occurred.

[thecoalman]

A CSS style sheet is an external file for a webpage that contains formatting information. It's not something you can fix itself . It either loads or doesn't, if it isn't you have to find out why and I'm all out of suggestions.

That might not even be what's wrong but it certainly appears that is.[/i]

[mujahid7ia]

ok
well thanks, maybe a winxp repair will do the trick
a google search for css sheets displaying incorrectly didn't yield any useful results...
