Dear ExpertI have problem downloading & viewing my email attachment from my yahoo mail. Previously it was fine.
The problem I am facing now is that when I click on the attachment files, it prompt me that 'No virus threat detected' and there is a download attachment button to click on, but when I click on it, there wasn't any response at all. At first, I thought maybe of the response time but I even waited for abt 5mins, the screen remain the same.
Can some one helps and advise what the problem behind?
Many thanks
