Yahoo email.. Won't export contacts: HELP

I have 5000 contacts on yahoo mail ... for some reason it won't let me export them in any way, .... ANYBODY have any ideas? this is really pissing me off

idk what can be the problem, i've just tried it and managed to export it into .csv, but you can export it into many forms: outlook express, thunderbird, vcard

which yahoo mail do you use? new or old layout? i'm using the new one, but i read now people usually get this issue with the new layout, so try switching back to the old one

I have tried both.. for whatever reason it won't let me export them and when it does i get 1 contact out of it.. is there any other way that i overlooked?
