Yahoo mail login has been pestering me with a google captcha at login. Since I always log out and clear cookies I log in several times a day sometimes and its never really been a problem. But now it tells me "TOO MANY ATTEMPTS" Even though there has been no "attempts" only successful logins. I've tried user agents and it worked for a few hours or a day but then it starts refusing again.
but if I use chrome it logs in right away in all these situations where it refuses palemoon

with a clean profile or not.

Anyone else?

How about not doing this? clearing cookies requires you to pass the captcha again, whether that will be visible or not.

but if I use chrome it logs in right away

...and you are surprised?
Google captcha, Google browser. Why would you not expect preferential treatment for it?

Not me. Never had a Gooble captcha with Yahoo. I'm using the newer version; are you using the newer or standard version? I don't know if that would make a difference.

Sometimes they will lock you out, just for not being a mainstream browser. When this occurs, try their Sign-In Helper.

And yes, if you can get away with it, do not clear cookies. Also, do not mess with user agent strings.

I've been trying but its a old habit of running crap cleaner when I exit the browser. It does log me out automatically too eventually
they also have ZERO support unless you pay.

Not only this but my ISP is blocking browsers using anything older than windows 11

Code: Select all

https://myaccount.shaw.ca/Home

this happened until I changed the user agent to Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0
So it timed out with http2 error but loaded instantly with the linux agent.
Even Chrome that seems to default to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/109.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 will work for a few clicks past login then it errors out too:

Code: Select all

This site can’t be reached The webpage at https://my.shaw.ca/home might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR

also I didnt notice that with PM it wants me to enter a code but chome it doesnt. (even with the custom user agent)


I'm not bitching at you guys, I changed ISP's, I dont give a f**k

I'm just sharing these findings and looking for solutions or others having issues.
I just notice and increase on the stupidity with this situation.

i tried to visit https://myaccount.shaw.ca/Home as per TS and i'm not getting any issues getting the login page.
im not a customer so i don't have a login to continue.
