This is the error i get when trying to access my calendar at my.yahoo.com.... I use my.yahoo as my home page and am using FF 2.0....This also happens with IE7.

"Sorry, Forbidden.
You don't have permission to access this URL on this server.

Please check the URL for proper spelling and capitalization. If you're having trouble locating a destination on Yahoo!, try visiting the Yahoo! home page or look through a list of Yahoo!'s online services. Also, you may find what you're looking for if you try searching below."

Also, i just tried logging out and i get the same error....i just cleared the cookie in Firefox and now when i try to log back into the site, i get that message and it wont let me log in..
