Sunday, I too was in a chat room, and got signed out, I can get my email, and other Yahoo functions, but cannot get my messenger. I have changed my password, cleaned out the ypager folder, deleted cookies and temporary internet files, but to no availe. I still cannot get my messenger back. I also set up numerous new id's and went into chat, but each time, the same thing happens. I don't know why I was targeted, why I have been banned, but I am not very happy about it. I lost a lot of family contact information that I had in messenger (especially since I correspond thru messenger w/ my family). Is there possibly someone out there that KNOWS why this happened and how to actually fix it. From reading several other forums, I apparently am not the only one, but to get anything out of Yahoo help is like pulling your eye teeth.
