Locked out of my Yahoo email account
I am unable to access my yahoo email account.The load bar goes half way but it is prevented from loading fully.My web browser prevents the page from loading.If I click allow, I can see that I have signed in as my email address is present.And I can still download messages to my email program.But when I go to my yahoo to look for information the site asks for cookies.Other sites I have tried to use,are also unusable because they need cookies.I have enabled cookies in my web browser,but to no avail.This problem began after I used my security scan and removed 35 cookies. Please help Many thanks Richard

Make sure your security software (antivirus, anti-spyware or firewall...) isn't set to block cookies.
