If the website you are trying to view does not come up correctly in IE 8, try "Compatibility Mode." 'Compatibility Mode' in IE8 lets you browse pages that aren't up to speed with IE8 technology. Basically, it makes them load just as well as they did in IE7 or 6, but with the security and speed of IE 8. This link is helpful in explaining how to use Compatibility Mode:

I would recommend using a different browser like Mozilla Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html). IE8 is known to have many different problems.
Also, you can check to make sure that Java is updated (I think Yahoo uses this for its attachment features): http://java.com/en/download/help/java_update.xml#manual_update
Sometimes, it is a good idea to just try again. There are reports of people who have this problem and they just try again and it works fine.
