Answer:
Did you check the WinXP firewall settings, or just disable it? Your proxy settings, IP, etc, could have been removed as well due to the upgrade. If none of this works then check your router settings and any packet filtering you may have on it?

I'm not sure, but it sounds like you are using more than one proxy server? Ifyou are - you only need one! Run it on the machine of your choice and connect the others through it. On the exceptions list for the XP firewall make sure your messanger programs are permitted to talk.

I have been having problems with the yahoo messenger 8.0 program. It won't connect. I deleted and reinstalled the 7.0 and it works, for now. Yahoo is really screwed up right now. It might have something to do with the MSN and Yahoo integration going on now.
