Whenever I try to read my email on my email account, I always get a window that says there is a problem with my internet connection. When I hit refresh, a site that is known for malware shows up. Why is...

Thanks for visiting FixYa!

Yahoo has been experiencing a system wide problem. Many of Yahoo! Mail customers are experiencing the same problem (Malware error message).

To assist Yahoo mail customers with this problem, AOL will transfer all of your contact information and future emails from your Yahoo account to your new AOL account for the next 30 days for free. (Until Yahoo can correct the problem). You won't miss any emails from your Yahoo account.. They will be automatically forwarded to your new AOL account.

Here are the instructions:

1) Go to AOL and set up a new AOL email account. (Click on this link) https://my.screenname.aol.com/_cqr/login/login.psp?seamless=novl&locale=us&offerId=newmail-en-us-v2&siteState=ver%3A4'rt%3ASTANDARD'at%3ASNS'ld%3Awebmail.aol.com'uv%3AAOL'lc%3Aen-us'mt%3AAOL'snt%3AScreenName'sid%3Af27fcb24-926a-4b22-ac39-ac0d19e1d3f4&authLev=0&sitedomain=sns.webmail.aol.com&lang=en

2) During the set up process you will be asked to provide a security question. Later, you'll need to answer the security question to set up the transfer, so don't forget the answer.

3) Once your new AOL account is set up, go to your AOL email page. Look in the upper right hand top corner for the word, SETTINGS and click on it.

4) (Next page) On the left hand side, look for the word, Accounts and click on it.

5) (Next Page) Look on the line beginning with, Transfer Accounts and locate the link that reads, AOL Easy Transfer and click on it.

6) (Next Page) Agree to the terms of service and click on, Get Started.

7) (Next Page) Under Copy from, enter your Yahoo email address and password.

8) Under Copy to, enter your new AOL email address and password.

9) (Next Page) Carefully Read, and select the options you need. (Click, Continue)

10) (Next Page) Click, Go to AOL Mail.

11) (Next Page) Enter the answer to your security question you created when you set up your new AOL email account. (Click, Continue)

12) (Next Page) Look at the top Left hand corner and click on, MAIL.

That's it. (Although AOL says that it may take up to 24 hours to complete the process - it usually only takes about 30 minutes.) After you receive your confirmation email, Click on your Contacts in your AOL account. When you see your Contacts from your Yahoo account there, the transfer has completed.

Email sound effects

The first step is to log in to your AOL account (I use AOL 9.0 for these examples, but earlier versions should be approximately the same) and click on the "Settings" button along the top toolbar. You'll get here:

0c035a1.png
As you can see, there's more than one match for "Sound". If you want to disable the Welcome sound and other sounds completely so that you have a silent AOL experience, then click on "Sounds - Setting" and you'll be taken to AOL's Multimedia Settings:

Notice the last option: "Enable AOL Sounds such as the Welcome greeting and Instant Message chimes". Uncheck this box, and save the changes and you'll never be bothered by audio feedback.
