I tried several times to log into Open. It would just keep getting stuck in the "logging in gardenergirl" stage.
On a related note, I seem to have lost the ability to sign into Yahoo messenger under gardenergirl88 as well. It just keeps coming back to password. I can get email, and My Yahoo, just not messenger. I can also log into messenger with my original, IRL yahoo acct. What's up with that?
Does someone out there want me to stop chatting with people and work on my dissertation?
But seriously, if anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful.
Thanks from the victim of computer gremlins.

hi gg:
two suggestions for you:
1. uninstall and reinstall yahoo messenger (get the latest version)
2. reboot.good luck!

Thanks, I'll give it a try tonight. Still not working, and no response from Yahoo other than referring me back to their help pages. I may just set up a new acct., but then I will lose all my buddies :(
If I do, I'll post so y'all can send me your addies again and I can get back in touch. What a pain!

OP,
Any thoughts on why I can't get into Open? It just stays on the you are being logged into the system note, and slows stuff down for awhile while it's trying. I feel so out of touch! And it's only been half a day. Gosh, I'm addicted to Babblers!gg

OP,
I forgot to mention, it is happening at school, too, not just on home machine. Plus, I can get into messenger with my other acct. So this seems acct. related. Dang Yahoo. Awaiting a response from them. Probably going to get a new acct., which I will post or something to get my buds back.Thanks for you help.
