An error script keeps popping up on my yahoo mail page, what do I do to stop it from popping up?

If you use Internet Explorer as your Web browser, chances are you have experienced, or will experience, popup script errors. Typically, a dialog box may appear stating "A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?" or "Internet Explorer Script Error. An error has occurred in the script on line 1. Do you wish to continue running scripts on this page?" These errors can be distracting and interfere with your Web browsing experience. If you would like to stop receiving these error messages, you must modify your IE settings.

Open IE, select "Tools" and ten choose "Internet Options." The Internet Options dialog box will open. Click on the "Advanced" tab, scroll to the "Browsing" section and then select the "Disable Script Debugging" box.

Clear the "Display a notification about every script error" box under the same section if it has been selected. Click "Apply" and then choose "OK" to modify your IE settings. You will receive no more IE script error notifications. Hope this helps.

You may not have Internet Explorer as your default browser but it is coded with Yahoo Messenger

I think its just a sever problem. nothing is wrong with your account. you can try this. first you can try changing the PASSWORD. if not, try updating things like, Adobe Flash Player Internet Explorer and Java script. Or you could try other browsers. or better yet, just stick to the old yahoo mail. hope this helps. goodluck!
