Answer 1

If this happens trying to enter a room, do this;1st thing you do when you get in lounge is check small windows in options box.once in room make sure you expand it to see chat area..this also gets rid of the ads. If you can not get game to load,do this;


If you can’t get lounge page to open do this! Click on My PC ,disk drive C, open windows folder,next open Downloaded programs file. click game you want to play to high lite it.delete it.Now go back to game,it will prompt you to download a demo,do so and page will open! Your old download is stale since yahoo's new up grades.

There are a few things you can do here. Try downloading Internet Explorer 7.0 from www.microsoft.com webpage. Internet Explorer 7.0 offers faster browsing and better security features. Next, go to www.java.com. When the page opens, you will see 'Java Software Free Download'. You do NOT want to push the Download Now option, but rather click the 'Verify Installation' in blue lettering. Then click the 'Verify Installation' and it will tell you if you have the latest java update. If not, click the download button that apears at the bottom of the page and follow promts. Third, I'd check if your computer has spyware on it. If a computer has spyware, it tends to block certain sites from showing. One of the best programs to use to find any spyware/malware is Ewido. You can download the program at http://www.ewido.net/en/download/.... It is a 30 day free trial, but you still are able to use it after the 30 days. Lastly, I would make sure your pop up blocker is turned off (if you have one). If you are using Internet Explorer, it has a built in pop up blocker. To disable the blocker within Internet Explorer, click Tools--> Pop Up Blocker--> Turn Off Pop Up BLocker. Hope this helps!!

Many are having this problem since we got the new format on Yahoo Games, including myself. If your experiences with Yahoo! Games include:

getting a blank screen
nothing occurring when you try to join a table
any similar problem
You need to double-check that Java and JavaScript are fully enabled in your browser. Follow the steps below for your browser:

Netscape 4.XX or newer for Windows, Mac, or Linux

Click "Edit" in the menu bar, and then select "Preferences."
Click the word "Advanced" and put checks in the boxes next to "Enable Java" and "Enable JavaScript."
Internet Explorer 4.XX for Windows

Click "View" in the menu bar, and then select "Internet Options."
Click the "Security" tab.
For the Internet Zone, be sure that the Security level is set to "Medium" or below. (If you 've chosen to customize your Security settings for the Internet zone, be sure that under the Java heading, "Java permissions" is not set to "Disable Java." You'll want to select one of the three safety levels instead. Also be sure that under the Scripting heading, "Scripting of Java Applets" is set to "Enable" or "Prompt.")
Next, click the "Advanced" tab.
Scroll down until you see the subheading "Java VM."
Check the boxes next to "Java logging enabled" and "Java console enabled." (Note: If you've checked the box next to "Java JIT compiler enabled" and are experiencing freezing problems, uncheck that box.)
Internet Explorer 5.XX or 6.XX for Windows

Click "Tools" in the menu bar, and then select "Internet Options."
Click the "Security" tab. For the Internet zone, be sure that the Security level is set to "Medium" or below. (If you've chosen to customize your security settings for the Internet zone, be sure that under the Java heading, "Java permissions" is not set to "Disable Java." You'll want to select one of the three safety levels instead. Also be sure that under the Scripting heading, "Scripting of Java Applets" is set to "Enable" or "Prompt.")
Next, click the "Advanced" tab.
Scroll down until you see the subheading "Java VM."
Check the boxes next to "Java logging enabled" and "Java console enabled." (Note: If you checked the box next to "Java JIT compiler enabled" and are experiencing freezing problems, uncheck that box.)
Note to Windows XP users

By default, the Windows XP operating system comes with the Internet Explorer 6 browser without the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed, which is required to run Java programs such as Yahoo! Games.

If you install Windows XP over an existing installation of Windows that already has Internet Explorer with a JVM installed, then you should be able to play just fine.

At this time, Microsoft no longer provides a download of the JVM if you do not already have it installed. You're welcome to contact them for information on where to find and download this program.

However, you have the option to download Sun's Java plug-in by visiting

http://www.java.com/en/download/help/aut...

Sun is the creator of Java, and their plug-in will allow you to play Yahoo! Games.

Internet Explorer 4.5 or 5 for Macintosh OS 8-9

Select "Edit" from your menu bar and choose "Preferences..."
Then, click the "Java" bullet within the Web Browser section.
Make sure that the "Enable Java" box is checked.
Internet Explorer 5 for Macintosh OS X

Select "Preferences" from the "Explorer" menu.
Select "Java" from the left navigation bar.
Place a check-mark next to "Enable Java."
You may also want to clear your cache and restart your browser. I did this too.

If you continue to have problems, double-check your computer's compatibility with Yahoo! Games.
If you click on and off many pages or get booted trying to sit at a table with higher ratings than yours you will get booted. Happened to me twice last week. Yahoo has a spam tracker now!
