everytime i login through yahoo messenger it fails. ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling it.ive also tried upgrading it to version 9 beta but it is throwing error too.However i can use webmessenger and also can login to my mail account successfully. Ive cleared yahoo messenger's access permission in firewall,besides ive also tested it without firewall.Any suggestions?:(

Are you sure you are typing the right password. If using yahoo india account, try to login without "@yahoo.co.in"

Have you tried another client like pidgin and trillian? If it works there, contact yahoo customer care.
