Cannot attach files in "all-new yahoo mail" .
works fine with "yahoo classic mail" and used to work with "beta yahoo mail"

Firefox should be run as your normal user. If you have run firefox as
sudo previously, you'll need to fix your mozilla dir by running:

sudo chown -R USER:USER ~/.mozilla

Replace USER with your username.
