ah...Glenn....I just spent 5 hours checking these out....with Arachne
1.69....
1.  MyYahoo is indeed accessible using https-spoof IF you do NOT go
thru the main login page, but instead use the upper-righthand link to
SIGNIN and get the page with the login boxes on the RIGHThand side.
The main login, with the boxes on the LEFThand side, is NOT spoofable.
2.  MyGroups is NOT accessible using https-spoof, anymore...two weeks
ago I did spoof into my MyGroups...but not yesterday.  AND..the link
from the bottom of my MyYahoo page (i.e. "View My Yahoo Groups")
deadends into a "Verify Password" page that is NOT spoofable..so..
ONLY the MyYahoo pages, and the MyYahooMail are still spoofable..
Groups are no longer so.

hmmm...maybe I'll take a look at Lynx386 just to see if I'd rather
use it than IE3.03/w3.1...<g g g>

Yep...same thing happens to me with Arachne 1.69 (or any version I've
tried) for my ComputerBooksClub on the same site(s).  These former
MacMillanBookClubs are ALL a pain to access, even with a winbloawzz
blowzer...

good....when you get the fix...I can use it for MY book clubs on
that site..
