I don't know what is happening to yahoo, but they display something really wrong in the title of my website, hosted by another company (not related to yahoo).

Have you ever had that on your website result?

This is the screenshot images took today in the US and French Yahoo!

about 3 years ago I had a very similar situation where Y had all across my listing wrong titles and often damaged link-code or a plain link text ( url ) instead of title

needless to say that my pages where validate html 4.01 ( your site has code errors but none that would explain the error.

I then reported the situation to Y
since all across my listing the results where wrong - just as it would appear after a database damage / emergency recovery from alternate temporary source ....

I recommended ALL results to be removed and all re-created from scratch
Y did HALF of my recommendation - removed all but some 1000 listings

I reported again - since the remaining nearly 1000 still were wrong listings

as a result I got banned / all listings removed - until now!

no problem to me - the loss of traffic is so tiny that I never really noticed a loss of traffic
it's just annoying

my recommendation
live with wrong results - never expect Y to understand the wrong situation
who knows in a few weeks - months - years Y may go bankruptcy and just disappear from SE world ...
G brings the $-traffic
Y is just for fun to add (red) color to SE world

Thanks for sharing your similar experience.
The hosting where I am, get a crashdown on their server more than one month ago,maybe it's because of that.
They reported a spam issue.
anyway now, my PR is 0 and was 3 before, most of the old pages in Google are not shown anymore.

And my pages seems valid, anyway since the begining.
