    This has been happening at leats once a day for me lately-especvially when chekcing on on my Yahoo Email and occasionally, LinkedIN.

    Is this a search engine issue or is yahoo mail really having this many problems?

    No problem with my Yahoo account these days, but... could it be also a connection issue?

    Not connection. A 404 is a response from the server. So, if you're going through a proxy your proxy could be screwing up, or the services are having issues. I'm betting it's a proxy issue, though.

    Wait more than 15 minutes between bumps? Try a different DNS service?

    I dont know why that post was doubled; entirely unintentional.

    I have no clue what a DNS service is.
