OMG OMG OMG!!! I CANT GET INTO YAHOO GAMES OMG! EVERY TIME I TRY IT SAYS ERROR 999!!! HOW DO I CHANGE MY IP I THINK THATS THE PROBLEM FRICKEN SHIT! SOMEONE EMAIL ME DAMNIT!! PALEEEEEEEEEEZZZ
error 999 is yahoo’s way of saying “slow the fuck down!” or that you’re making them work too much.
just got it now, but everything worked fine going through a proxy or anonymizer (www.anonymouse.org)
it’ll pass, but the other yahoo users in my house will have to go through anonymouse for a few days.
you’d think they’d figure out a way around this and put it in their FAQ, but nooooo……
“Error 999″ etc is really bugging everyone. Why cant someone get hold of Yahoo and tell to stop buggering the UK games players about!!!!!!!!!!!!! HHHHHHHEEEEELLLPPPPPPPP yahoo! Do something about it.
Use an anonymous proxy - its yahoos fault, they are limiting the bandwidth…big f*ck you to yahoo. Boycott their service if you can or hammer their sites which will actually cause them more traffic than it would have if no BS error would have been received.

GOD ERROR 999 MESSAGE
Sorry, Unable to process request at this time — error 999.
I was accessing my business email and setting up my filters, and clicking the up arrows to move the filters to higher positions and bam I am hit with this error 999 BS. And I pay for their freaking email service. Hope this crap goes back to normal in 24 hours. Unreal.
Try Firefox - I get the 999 in IE, but get thru in Firefox.
the 999 error seemed to occur when the main yahoo mail .com site put a ban on your IP address
solution (tried and tested many times)
1. try to login using
mail.yahoo.co.uk
or
2. http://login.europe.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=uk
for some reason (known only to yahoo expert !) these links
are blind to the ban slapped by the main yahoo mail link.
try it and it will work.
goood luck
Yahoo Mail is not working today.
How do you contact them to tell them?
This is shit!
What the heck happened today?

Is SO Appalling
I agree .. yahoo should stop spending money on this scary picures on the yahoo mail and model chicks and focus on god damn service. SPEND SOME MONEY ON TECHNOLOGY RATHER THAN MARKETING FLUFF!
what the hell is going on yahoo…
Wake up or else google will bankrupt you.
crap crap crap 999 error someone call the cops and get yahoo banged up
TO SOLVE THE 999 ERROR MESSEAGE AT YAHOO, HERE IS THE SOLUTION (I THINK!!!!!!!!)
FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE USING PROXY ON YOUR BROWSER, TRY TO SWITCH TO ANOTHER PROXY. YOU MUST KEEP ON SWITCHING TO ANOTHER PROXY UNTIL YOU FIND ONE THAT WORK FOR YOU. or YOU CAN GET RID OF YOUR PROXY AND HAVE A “DIRECT CONNECTION” WHEN CONNECT TO YAHOO THEN YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM.
HOPE IT HELP
dammit! I couldn’t log in to check my e-mail and it happens with yahoo games too
always ERROR 999…It happened just yesterday and I let it go but it’s happening today too….Can somebody help me, plz? I’m worried. Yahoo seems to be pretty messed up!!!!!
Thanks
LOL! For last three days I get this error.
No wonder YHOO gettin’ ass kicked by goog. For real, YHOO is over.
Yhoo, if yer reading this lemme tell you bud, yer history :)
cause fuckin yahoo has got your ip logged and they foresee ur about to get the upper hand and they block ur ass …just cat and mouse shit
This issue has beeh happening to me for several weeks. I’m fed up with Yahoo, and I’m a loyal Yahoo user since 1998. It looks like the Yahoo Admin have just stopped caring about their users. Like an old woman in a rent-controlled apartment, they no longer care to fix the problems with her plumbing.
I just started having this problem and it’s not just on my home computer, it’s every computer that I’ve tried to change my profile on! That kills the IP address theory! I think there is a major problem with Yahoo and the whizes, or lack therof, haven’t figured the fix out yet.
It is now two years, this discussion started and Yahoo! has done nothing about it, Yahoo Suck! I m finished with Yahoo messenger.

way around error 999
This is really strange. I’ve many, many, many free web accounts on yahoo and the one, I recently signed up for, is the only one, which is giving me this error since the last few days…
Now it’s almost impossible to get into Yahoo chat and I still get this lousy error message when I try to do anything with my profile: Sorry, Unable to process request at this time — error 999.

Return to Yahoo!
Please try Yahoo! Help Central if you need more assistance.
If there were more people and less bots hanging out at Yahoo we might get some answers! I just switched over to Yahoo mail but if this shit keeps up I might give Bill Gates my business again. At least you can talk to a human there!
Yahoo! is working on that right now.
I got a bullshit response from their help team on this one…I’m getting these errors every time I go to delicious last couple of days.
I just registered for a del.icio.us account and here it is: the 999 error. I remember seeing the *same thing* waaay back years ago on Yahoo! when I was registering for some other Yahoo service (don’t remember what it was). What are they thinking? Wake up, Yahoo!

They haven’t fixed it yet, another instance of there error has come up. They sure found the time to implement Google styled advertisements, but for 2 years they haven’t change this. From that I would take it that they do not consider this an bug but a feature. Don’t expect it to change : /
Yahoo sucks big time, unable to resolve issues. Takes such a long time to wake up. Going down hill, google should take over yahoo
A great Shit…. But I think, it comes when some sharing computers try to open 2 or 3 IDs at yahoo. The yahoo stops the service and tells that there is some virus or spyware in your system. But if the proxy of each system is different or it is a networking, it might not appear on screen…

I think its funny they ask my email address in this “leave a reply” box considering i can’t even CHECK my email!!!
And NO, its not some stupid spyware stuff, its not something wrong with my computer because i have access to an ENTIRE CAMPUS full of computers at my school and NONE OF THEM allow me to access my email any better. if i’m lucky, i get to atleast see the subjects of them. this is complete bullshit.
can’t yahoo! atleast provide some phone number so i can call and bitch to a real person? i have important emails coming in everyday, shit for school and classes and clubs and meetings, i’m getting rid of my yahoo account if this doesn’t get better within the week. christ.
Start a huge wave, getting people to drop yahoo, and everything about them, don’t game there, don’t purchase anything from there affiliates nothing…use craigslist, blog page, hell buy ad time in the paper, call you local news affiliate…whatever, they laugh at you, they DO NOT care, you can’t even actually talk to them, and they WILL NOT reply to you email bitch except with the generic reply everyone gets that has all their lies for why it;s happening….Yahoo MUST go down, fast.
Lets get it rollin’…..Power in Numbers.
Hi all !
I have the response ! and I think, it’s not legal !!!!!!!!!!!
This error arrive when the texte of the mail content a concurrence of yahoo mail !!!!!
Exemple : Try to send a mail by yahoo with this texte “try@hotmail.fr” !!!
and try again with “try@try.fr” !
In the first case, you will see the error and not in the second case !!
BYE BYE !!!!
I have been a Yahoo user since the early 90’s, after we switched from dial-up to satellite last June, then I started experiencing the 999 errors shortly afterwards. Which leaves me with Google or Ask for search engines, that’s all right if that’s the way Yahoo wants to play the game.
I do a lot of research and do the use the search engines a lot, if you can’t access Yahoo pages then all the companies/sponsors who are paying monthly fees to advertise on Yahoo, certainly would stop advertising with Yahoo. My conclusion would be Yahoo will fold up eventually…..
I have been trying to publish a response on Answers.Yahoo.com for quite a while now but I kept getting the 999 error message. I just tried accessing through http://www.anonymouse.org and it worked like a charm! It’s a UK site, and I’m in the U.S., but it worked wonderfully, so thanks #17 Anonymous for the suggestion.
now im the new victim of sloppy yahoo engineers (!?).
Hi!
Sorry, Unable to process request at this time — error 999.
This is Horrible, every time I’m facing this issue, when am trying to enter Yahoomail.com. I have no idea about it as I’m not a techie, people from Yahoo should be knowing about it and also they can rectify it immediately.
Try to fix that as soon as possible.
mainly proxy problem i think
Fuckin this yahoo wantedly doing this error to reduce the bandwidth usage.
For me always I cant able to enter into the chat rooms, but for sometimes.
David, just got this message today. Doing a bunch of map look ups for my job that requires I drive everywhere in northern california, guess my 60+ queries didn’t sit well with yahoo… sigh…
What really ticks me off is that this “Sorry, Unable to process request at this time — error 999″ thing has been going on for months, and I pay for a business account with these bozos. No one at Yahoo answers questions and the help pages are full of irrelevant junk. Little wonder Yahoo is sliding down the toilet. How hard can it be to sort out this problem? Why don’t they hire some competent programmers for f***’s sake and try to salvage what’s left of their reputation!
