name and password to sign in to your Web Hosting Control Panel, you must provide this 

information to communicate with our servers. By default, SiteBuilder will transmit this 

information using a secure connection, protected by SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) 

technology.  

If, when trying to publish or import your web site, you encounter a sign in or user 

name/password error, the secure connection could be to blame. First try disabling or 

reconfiguring your firewall or antivirus software (see the previous tip). If you still cannot 

publish or import your site, try disabling the secure connection.  

To disable the secure connection: 

1.

Select Preferences... from the Tools menu.  

2.

Select the General tab from the Preferences window.  

3.

Uncheck the box next to Use secure connection to sign in.  

4.

Click OK.  

Note: For your own security, be sure to disable the secure connection only when trying to 

connect to the Yahoo! servers.  

Try Again Later 

If you cannot publish your site and have exhausted the above options, the problem may lie 

with the server to which Yahoo! SiteBuilder is attempting to connect. Chances are that

that you try to publish your web site again at a later time.
