============ =====
i've got one browser that the search is broken, one browser that can't
even log into yahoo-groups, and one browser that everything works fine.
all of the browsers are standards compliant; none of them are IE or
firefox.
yahoo has become the slum-lord of run-down & abandoned mailing lists. it
does seem that if they get a few complaints about the search function on a
particular list they can fix it. in the meantime, try different browsers.
there are ∗plenty∗ available for linux/bsd... but off the top of my head i
can only think of 2 for windoze.
