Basically:
Start up Y!IM
type in my username and password
click sign in
signing in for about 3 minutes....
drops me back to the sign in page.
I ran Y!IM ONCE on this computer but not for a week or so.
Vista home premium.
Trend Micro IS.

What antivirus do you have? Your ports might be blocked for some reason.  Wink

I use Trend Micro Internet Security. It seems that many of my internet programs don't run at peak internet times. Which include Y!IM and FSX Multiplayer.
