MemberHi I have not been able to access profiles for a few days. I get the following message.
The requested URL /?????? was not found on this server.
This is on any profile I try and read.
Any ideas? Or should I contact Yahoo direct.
Thanks
Edit: Made topic more specific. You forgot to make your title specific…remember there’s more than Yahoo! on this site (though we both know Yahoo!’s the best ;))

MemberSarah…
Are you with NTL or more than likely BT by anychance, if so then yes you will have a problem accessing yahoo profiles. This fault has been problematic in the past few days.
If You are with BT you may just be in luck, you can email yahoo, but remember.. the first three replies to Yahoo are computer generated and will blame something else UNTIL you gets to a human on the forth or 5th email you sends to them after they have first replied.
But if You are with BT you may be in luck.. as they are sposed to be BT/Yahoo and working together.. You may be better off sending this to BT and having a better chance of a response and an action to it.
Who knows with Yahoo… but I would put money on BT doing something before yahoo ever will and hopefully get it sorted.

MemberWell just so you know, I’m not with NTL nor BT and I’ve been experiencing this a lot lately too…I find that simply refreshing the page a few times allows me to see the profile….although I’m sure that doesn’t work for everyone.
I also found this webpage for viewing profiles….a bit annoying , granted, but useful until Yahoo get their s**t together…

Memberhippo.. that is a site I have known about and is helpful in getting profiles, sadly it doesnt get them all especially if a friend has their profile in the adults section and you needs to sign in. however all in all it does work for other profiles that arent adults not all but most.. but given that it’s a damn sight better than yahoo currently.
