I check the box where it says "Don't show this message again on Yahoo! Answers" but it keeps popping up every time anyway. Does it do this to other people? or is my account bugged?

Mine does it to, but as it starts to say that, it instantly gets popped back and doesn't make it through.

I use Google Chrome btw.

Make sure your pop up blocker settings aren't being messed with. I use Norton 360 to keep an eye on all my security settings, it will alert me if something is off that should be on.

I noticed that when I was using Internet Explorer. Now I am using Opera and there is no such pop up. Opera is heaven.. Only problem is you have to use the enter button to click on a url address - you cant click with the mouse . Nothing is perfect.

Go to your profile and enable or disable the sharing of your questions with users of facebook, twitters and the like. Before you haven't made your choice the bubble will keep popping up! I believed it to be a major Yahoo glitch when it first showed up a couple of hours ago, especially since I set my profile to private, but then I got a hint. I went to my profile and found out that all my answers were posted there for everybody to see! I just wonder whatever gives Yahoo the idea that somebody would set his questions and answers to <not visible> and then turn around and let the whole world read them...:-(

Hey guys,
Just to let you all know that the Team made a change yesterday that we hoped would fix this but it's clear some people are still being affected by this. We're working on this right now and hope to have it fixed for you guys.
