Lucky You are definately NOT the only one, and from what I am hearing Yahoo is patching servers, which means they are updating them. From what we see going on it looks like they are working on the login servers, or the way in which we log in. This may be due to the abundance of people who boot and log in hundreds of names. I worked with someone last night and he still is unable to get in on one name. Tried all the tricks, etc. So this is definately not a boot, or an account locker, or the typical things we see in chat, but it a Yahoo server problem. Last week it was the web cam server was down, then the file transfer server, now this.
My only suggestion is to be patient. And see what happens. I don't think this would happen on a 3rd party chat client like ymlite or y-chat because they connect to different servers. I will continue to look around for answers, and let you know.
