Cannot load yahoo mail without using a vpn

[akm360]

I use chrome and when i try logging into my yahoo mail I just get this error message -

Yahoo works best with the latest versions of the browsers. You're using an outdated or unsupported browser and some Yahoo features may not work properly. Please update your browser version now. More Info

My browser is updated, I've even tried with multiple browsers (Edge and IE) with no luck.
The pages load all wonky too, with text scattered across the page and images not loading.

I tried some of the suggestions I found on google like resetting the whole browser and enabling javascript in the privacy settings (was already on). I also tried whitelisting yahoo on adblock and even disabling adblock entirely along with all other extensions.

I've been using yahoo for a long time and haven't faced a similar issue, also as the title says I found that the issue disappears completely when I use a vpn to change my IP to another one from the same country I reside in. I have no idea what the issue could be and google doesn't seem to help at all. If anyone has any suggestions I'd like to try them.
Sorry if I posted on a wrong section of the forum, I couldn't find a suitable category.

Are you sure you haven't downloaded a dodgy extension or your browser has been compromised?
I would check it out with ZHP Cleaner (its FREE and is better than any other cleaner out there).

I really haven't downloaded anything in the past day or two, plus if it was an extension it should have been resolved after I reset the browser, or tried another one.

Alas, resetting your browser doesn't always work.
Unless you tried what I said, I cannot offer any more help on the subject. To me it sounds like you have been hijacked, but we won't know unless you run that program.
