I have just tried to get my yahoo mail & have seen a large dialogue box wanting me to install a certificate & wanting to re-route me to another site I managed to get back to my regular home page with difficulty. What is this why didn't Yahoo say it was coming..........?

You don't have a firewall or a popup blocker...if you have Microsoft Explorer, go to MSN and download the updates they offer. In one of the updates, you will get a blocker of spyware. You have been invaded, it's not Yahoo. It will ask for your password and then invade the rest of your stuff...be careful and good luck.

Check what address you are going to. A certificate prompt will only come up when you are trying to go to a secure web site (starts with https:// instead of http://). Currently, it is possble to login to yahoo for mail by going to https://mail.yahoo.com and you will get a message saying that there is a certificate mismatch because the certificate belongs to login.yahoo.com (not mail.yahoo.com). Both are yahoo and both are legitmate (in this case).
The address you are entering and the certificate message you get will be important in getting a more specifc answer for your situation.

that's a scam. in case you probably did no longer enter the competition your self. Then that's probable a scam. do in no way supply out your individual information etc. in the event that they ask you to deliver funds for some thing you supposedly gained that would desire to be a purple flag that that's a scam.

I don't know of any certificates from Yahoo. Contact Yahho help and tell them what you have.
