Can anybody give advice on a REAL pain? I have tried accessing several groups listed in Yahoo in the Miscellany Section of this site. Every time I TRY to access, I am given a notice that the page has adult content and 'sorry, but I have reached an age restricted area'. Whilst I totally support Yahoo's security incase 'minors' access these 'naughty sites' where does that leave geezers like me? Is there a solution? Any advice would be appreciated.

Click the 'I accept' box then join the group you are accessing. Witht the email settings opt for the daily digest otherwise you could end up with numerous messages coming in.

Yeah I get the same problem Ace. I recently tried to access an MSN group and it involved having to download a huge heap of shite courtesy of William Gates Esq. Apparently you have to have a Netscape pass or some similar crap. Perhaps Yahoo are similar twats using various methods to confuse us mere decent folk.
Your a big man but your out of shape. With me its a full time job.
I am the fucking daddy now!
Sorry mixing me film quotes.
Vegatarians?..........I've shit em!

You need to register,password etc, then log in, set your computer to accept cookies, then when you reach the age restriction page, click accept, then join the group, say you will read all mail at the site, and voila, your in.
The only problem is the pics are all reduced in size now, and usually take ages to open.
may your first child be a male child.

As long as you have an age on your profile above 18 you should just be able to click I accept and get into the group unless
Cookies is still registering your previous attempts to access the site.
Try a forced refresh...control plus f5...didn't work for me
but you never know
When i had problems signing in
I ended up deleting then reinstalling everything...
had the desired effect
cheers
