How to Fix Cookies in Yahoo Browsing
Yahoo! has several websites that you can access with a single Yahoo! ID and password. Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! Shopping, and Yahoo! Finance are examples of Yahoo! sites. Some Yahoo! sites require a Yahoo ID and password, such as Yahoo! Mail. Other Yahoo! websites allow visitors to browse without logging in. However, if your Web browser is displaying a cookie error or you keep getting re-directed to the Yahoo! Sign In page while trying to access a Yahoo! website, you need to modify your browser's cookie settings. The option to modify cookies is found in the Preferences or Options window of most Web browsers.
