    Yahoo is down currently, thanks to some oh-so-wonderful (please note the sarcasm there) hackers. From what a friend told me, a lot of big ones got hit.

    Quote from the conversation "the company that puts out ALL of the major sites, including Microsoft, Yahoo and others was assaulted somehow. either through a virus or something. so like almost all of the major sites out there are down. like I can't get onto Yahoo.com at all."

    Must be you guys that got infected/hacked, not yahoo

    I can access it fine, although I got a few timeout errors a few hours ago shortly after my account was upgraded to 100 MB - it seems back to normal now.

    They have more than one server, so it's likely that the site could appear to be down for some people but not for others. Or it could be limited in bandwidth so that I was lucky enough to see it but other people would be rejected because there's not enough resources to serve you. Could be that servers in your geographic area are down but over on my side of the country they work. Who knows. It still works fine for me.
