Yahoo Games

My yahoo game applets will no longer install and none of
the yahoo games can be played. Tried all the security
steps Yahoo support recommended and still no dice. Can
anyone help?

The same thing happened to me with Excite/Pogo java games years ago. It
turned out to be a pop-up blocker ( Ad Shield) I had installed. Whenever I
played, I had to prevent it from blocking scripted popups. That did the
trick. Have you installed a popup blocker? The Google search bar has one
built in, dunno if that affects java games.

Just an idea. Good luck. It can be a very frustrating problem.

Just be aware that on-line games can increase your spyware risk and have
preventive and curative measures in place like Adaware and Spybot -- Search
and Destroy. If you want these two free programs then you can Google them
and get their websites.
