  • Answer:

    please do not turn off your firewall i have recently had this problem. am i right in guessing that you have norton internet security ? if so, it might well be a firewall problem. follow this action : open up norton internet security, settings, personal firewall, configure, programme control. scroll down to yahoo messenger and change auto to allow. this should hopefully resolve your problem. good luck ...
