Strange results from Exceptions-U changes
I redirect Google's main search page to their advanced search page by using $JUMP in Exceptions-U. It's always worked fine until tonight when I changed some redirects for Yahoo directly underneath them. The original sequence looked like this:

Code:
www.google.com/(^?)      $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)
www.google.com/webhp?hl=en     $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)
www.google.com/imghp       $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_image_search?hl=en)
www.google.com/firefox   $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)

www.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)
login.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)
##  mail.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)

##  my.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(http://mail.yahoo.com)

But after changing only the Yahoo redirects like below, the Google redirect (from google main to advanced) stops working.

Code:
www.google.com/(^?)      $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)
www.google.com/webhp?hl=en     $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)
www.google.com/imghp       $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_image_search?hl=en)
www.google.com/firefox   $JUMP(http://www.google.com/advanced_search)

www.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)
my.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)
login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?&.src=ym     $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)
mail.yahoo.com/   $JUMP(https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=ym&.intl=us&.help=1)

I can't figure out why yahoo redirects would affect the google redirects above them. I've tested it several times because it seems crazy, but the behavior is consistent. I'd like to keep the new Yahoo redirects because they successfully eliminate dealing with the annoying login page that several here have complained about.
