Yahoo and Gmail have blocked my e-mail. They want a new browser. What do you suggest?
I have blocked Google Chrome and Google updates as they are intrusive and take up too much space. They leave behind dozens of cookies anytime they are used. Now Google and yahoo will not let me access my e-mail unless I get a new browser. Is this legal? Which new browser to you suggest?

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I think you are saying that when you try to use Firefox for Yahoo mail or Gmail the sites say that Firefox will not work there. I understand you don't like cookies, but nearly every site that requires a login will require that you allow cookies at least for as long as it takes to complete your session. Then you can remove those cookies.
Could you try these cookie settings to see whether it helps:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
If necessary change to:
"Firefox will: Use custom settings for history"
[X] Accept cookies from sites Accept third party cookies: Always Keep until: I close Firefox
If you created site-specific blocks for mail.google.com or google.com or mail.yahoo.com or yahoo.com, you can remove those by clicking the Exceptions button to the right of those cookie settings and finding them on the list there.
Any improvement?
