yahoo mail has updated their home page. The top line of tabs: contacts etc does not work. The curser does not change to a hand. The email inbox seems to work OK. If I uninstall a Flash Player add- on, the yahoo mail works normally. This Flash Player add- on was recently installed to enable me to view some videos. Do I really need that Flash Player add-on?

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
