    I don't know which version you have, but in IE 6, go to Tools>Internet Options>Privacy, click the Sites button and add Yahoo to allow.

    These things can be a pain.
    When you go to the mail login page, is there a red circle with a white line across the middle on the bottom gray line?
    Double-clicking on that should show Restricted Sites. Right-click on any one of those that shows Yahoo and select Always Accept Cookies from this site.

    You can see your version of IE at Help>About Internet Explorer at the top of any open web page.
