I have, and others have experienced the same problem.  I Googled "Yahoo Maps" and found that they have shut down web mapping services - see links below:

They suggest "using maps from our partner Nokia"?  Does anybody know how to modify the ProxyUser.ini [service3] Yahoo Maps to make this work??

 

The good news is that Bing (service1) has good coverage most places now - and supposedly you can use Google Maps now??

Sorry,

John G.

Hi
Thanks for your answer.
Bing has improved their coverage but yet not good enough, at least not in my country.
But it is better then nothing.
Google is still the best but it cant be used with tile proxy. I even tried.

Yahoo refers to another maps service called 'HERE'.
