is anyone else getting a different webpage for yahoo? I type in www.yahoo.com, but my address bar keeps changing it to m.www.yahoo.com. I do not sign in on this page since I don't trust it. I don't know what to do though, i can't check my e-mail since it keeps going to that page.

Didn't Microsoft and Yahoo come to an agreement to work together, maybe the m. in front is to point out Microsoft is with Yahoo now. Just a thought not certain but check it out just be careful could be a lot of things.

that, or yahoo is testing some new content and the m. was added to push you the the "new" or "temporary" site...

ok i looked it up and apparently yahoo is indeed trying a new layout, hence the m.yahoo.com.

Sadly they failed to notify the people they decided to try it out on.

the m in m.yahoo.com may be for mobile, thus the page you got to might just be the mobile version of the yahoo page.
