Yahoo news articles keep popping up

After I read a yahoo news article and close it. The same article will keep popping up one after another. And my virus scanner comes up with nothing. So is this a virus or something to do with yahoo. And it only happens with yahoo news article nothing else.

Hi, 

 

May i know which browzer and version of browzer you are using and is it happening with any other browzer also?

 

Have you tried running Norton Power Eraser, if you suspect any virus on the computer

 

If not, try it

It's a problem at yahoo's end, unsure when it will be totally fixed.
