I think Yahoo is beyond saving as it is now. The best thing they have is Alta Vista search engine which they bought the rights to and it is a GREAT product. The main page is clean and uncluttered, and the search results are actually better than those of Google. Ever since Google search placed that darn black bar of distraction on the search page I have hated it. It actually draws your eyes away from the search box, Alta Vista is perfect.
Alta Vista has been around since about 1995 it was a major player back in the 90s and early 00s.
Not sure why it had problems.
