Unable to process request at this time – error 999
Sometimes when I access Yahoo applications such as Yahoo Mail, I will be prompted with this pop up message:
Your request can not be processed.
Unable to process request at this time – error 999
One of the reasons given in MurrayMoffat.com explains that:
The most common reason for receiving Yahoo Error 999 is due to some sort of bandwidth limiting system that Yahoo has put in place on their servers. Once you have exceeded your allotted bandwidth for a specific period of time Yahoo gives you this Error 999 message and doesn’t allow you to access the service. People have primarily reported receiving this error when they try to access Yahoo Mail or Yahoo Groups, but other Yahoo services may also be affected.
Here are some suggested solutions:
Clear browser’s cookies and cache
Log into Yahoo using a different country’s server
Use “secure†option when logging into Yahoo instead of “standard†mode
User a different browser.
