yahoo isn't working for me

[Melonie Tomb Raider]

What is this, the millionth time i've had a problem with my computer? haha. Any way, everytime I try to access my.yahoo.com and I put in my username and password it takes me to a blank page that says this,

???????????????????•????????????`????????????????? ??•????????=?????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????-?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????? ????¦????????????????????????????????????????¦???? ?????????????????????????????????????????4???????? ??????

I have no clue what that is supposed to mean. It's weird because it's never done this before until yesterday, and I thought maybe yahoo was having difficulties, but my brother's computer can access it just fine. So can anyone help me out please?

Let me guess: You didn't use AdawareSE, Spyware S&D, SpywareBlaster. You anti-virus application up-to-date with latest definitions? http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/whistle.gif

Are you on dial-up, or broadband? Any Firewall?

I'm on dial-up. Could you please send me a link to Spyware S&D so I can download it? I did have it but it got messed up when I lost my other programs. Thanks so much for being so patient with all of my computer troubles Joseph, you're the best. *hugs* http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Here you are, Melonie: Spybot Search and Destroy download (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html)
Download it, and install. Then, first check for updates.
Then, disconnect form internet. Let it scan your complete hdd. Delete all baddies it found. Then, 'enable all protection' before you reconnect to internet.
You also need the freeware version of Ad-AwareSE: download AdAware SE free (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/#free)
Let both programs together do the work.
