    No problem with mine in Chrome. Perhaps its your Windows security or virus protection?

    Yeah I'm using Chrome to and there was no problems. It's probably what juicystream mentioned.

    Interesting... someone at Yahoo! or somewhere between your PC and Yahoo.com got a Yahoo.net certificate and installed it on their server or on your PC. :eek:
    It just means the Yahoo! address to log in is using a certificate given to another website. :eek: Click the spoiler to see the text it gives me.

    Just remove all history and cookies leading to "Yahoo.net" and try again. More than likely, it will serve you a new one. I am not getting the login page at "yahoo.net" if I try to read my email from scratch.

    Go to "mail.yahoo.com" in CHROME.

    Same thing was happening to me too. Even if I searched for yahoo mail in google it'd say the same thing. I'm just ignoring it for now...thankfully I have all my yahoo mail forwarded to a real e-mail service.

    Odd that it is only "CHROME" (from Google) that is giving this "untrusted" message. ;) I wonder if the Yahoo! Browser is doing this to GMAIL?

    Someone at Yahoo! is "testing" the wrong SSL certificate. Nothing to see here, really. It happens where I work ALL the time when people don't know how to place a certificate properly in their server and I have to fix it.

    Nothing's wrong with YOUR browser, virus scanner, SPAM stopper, or JUNK MAIL filter. :eek:

    Just wait a little bit and it will let you in without that bad certificate not given to Yahoo.com, but to yahoo.net.
