EACH NEW ADD CAUSES A BLANK BROWSER PAGE TO OPEN! THIS MUST STOP!!!
Each time a new add opens to the right of my e-mails, a new blank browser page opens. I have to close the new page (which closes the add), and within a second or less, another new add pops open, which causes yet another blank browser page to open, which I have to close. This has happened as many as 12 times within a 10 second period, which is very disruptive! There has to be a way to put a stop to this! If Yahoo is going to make money by posting adds, they also need to support those who use the free services they offer while Yahoo is making money from these adds! I sincerely hope this page is not just a place for Yahoo free service users to 'vent'! If something is not done to fix this issue, Yahoo will lose many free users, and the adds will no longer generate revenue!

Suggestion, try using a browser where you can (and do) add a Webmail Ad Blocker. NO MORE ADS.

As of June 15, 2019 at 9:00 AM PST, I no longer have this issue. It seems to be resolved for me.

My email is suffering from exactly the same problem. It is happening so often that the email is becoming unusable, please fix urgently. Regards. Aldo.

My mail is disabled due to constantly opening a new tab label about Blank. I am redirected to this blank page and when I return to my messages another blank tab is opened an I am again redirected. I cannot read or open any messages. Please fix.

After Win10 new update, as of Today(June 14,2019), yahoo mail is completely unusable as it keeps opening new tabs that say " about:blank" screens, interrupting even simple email review.
I have to SWITCH BACK TO CLASSIC version ??? -

Every time an ad in my email changes I get cascading about:blank tabs popping up. This only happens with my yahoo mail and will not stop. I am unable to do anything with my email while this happens.

I was searching for an old email, and all of a sudden the screen is blank -- it is a new tab spun off from yahoo mail. I keep killing them and they keep popping up. I use the latest Google Chrome, under: Ubuntu LINUX LTS 18.04.2
PS: was signed in, but feedback page forgot that, and script still says no, even though I signed back in.

My email keeps opening new tabs that say about:blank. The browser switches to that tab so I can't do anything in my email. I completely uninstalled Chrome and reinstalled it and the problem persists. Chrome says my browser is managed by yahoo.com. What is going on?

Chrome seems to hate it too as it is my main browser, and email doesn't work on it anymore.I dislike new email.Extra tabs are so-so,but the old classic was cleaner, easier to navigate and adjust to aging eyes as needed. I wasn't happy opening my inbox this morning and BAM! I'm on the new format, like it or not (NOT!!!)

I have never changed browser extensions in Chrome and suddenly, today, Yahoo mail is unusable because of the constant stream of blank tabs opening.

Provide members the ability to send reports with issues.
I'm here searching for a way to report an issue and this seems to be the way to do it.
I did have yahoo on my popup blocker allow list and adblock allow list, but since your new ads cause blank tabs to popup every 5 seconds I had to turn them back on.
The ads are a little annoying but I understand your interest in making money. It would be unfortunate to have to switch to google for this account. I have a lot of web pages registered with this account. -

No, it's not caused by a browser extension. I haven't added any browser extensions, and yet suddenly, on EVERYONE'S chrome browser, we get a blank screen and can't see our mail. My wife doesn't even know what a browser extension is, and she gets the same problem.

Whatever latest ***** up you've done has made Yahoo Mail almost unusable. Every few seconds it opens up a new blank tab.
And don't try the ** about it being a browser extension. I have not added any browser extensions since this started happening.
