    It is not happening to me but there are a few things you can try:

    I have been having problems with everything Yahoo! lately. The fantasy football constantly locks up and freezes, Y!A now and sometimes mail. I think the website is being loaded up beyond it's capacity.

    Mine is a much lower than messenger 10 or whatever.

    But if you have your inbox messenger(text) on,it will cut you off.

    Try un-hook'n your modem phone line and wait about 30 seconds and hook it back in.

    If that doesn't work.

    Turn your modem off after un-hook'n everything and wait 30 seconds and see if it works.

    I stopped using Yahoo IM, I tell my contacts to meet me on skype or google chat or voice. Each time Yahoo has a new version of Yahoo IM and you downloaded it, these issues arise. Each version is worse than previous versions.
