That information is stored on your hard drive. You can sign on as a guest  on machines that have the program loaded but you can't get to friends lists.

Here go here, they have all the answer to what you want to know, also make sure you have the latest version:\n\n\nYahoo! on a Router, Firewall or Proxy!\nhttp://www.helpbytes.co.uk/yconnect.php\n\n\nThough I must be honest with you!  There are reasons that your company has a firewall, using messenger will create a vulnerability, as it will need privileges to pass. I would just wait untill you get home !!!

There could be many things causing this problem. Make sure your regional settings are right. If all the settings are right then uninstall your messenger and install it again. Spyware and adware could also be blocking you log ons. If spyware or adware is present, then format the computer and try re-installing the messenger. A slow internet connection may also be causing this problem. You might also want to try a new account and see if that works.

Try to check if you installed firewall or not. Your McAfee might have blocked the path to connect your messenger. If you think it's because of McAfee, you should be able to connect when you disable the McAfee Software. I believe you can easily allowed the messenger's path to connect to internet. (I used zonealarm to block unblock programs). I hope it's just the firewall issue... =&#92;

i think the firewall on your computer is blocking your messenger..if you do have the firewall program on your computer try to shut down it first and then try to login again to MSN if it worked so it's true that the problem cause by the firewall...

Could be the cache of your Internet browser. Clear the cache and try again. Could be they blocked your IP for any number of reasons. Could be the port that MSN Messenger uses to communicate through has been blocked by your firewall or virus software. Could be the software needs to be uninstalled, reboot the system and reinstall. It could be the BIOS on the mother board is jamming the ports or causing a redirect of ports. Maybe a program or hardware item you've recently added to the system has interfered with MSN Messenger functions. Maybe something around a hundred various "could bes" could be the problem.

Just remove program and install messenger again. Also check the internet connection.\n\nIn rare case you might have had a special preference of internet connection that does not let Yahoo Messenger program access Internt.

Yahoo switched off their Java chat, so now you have to use Messenger to connect.\n\nhttp://chat.yahoo.com\n\nWith the change, their servers are probably overloaded.  Hopefully, the problems get sorted out soon.

If you have a firewall make sure that the firewall is allowing the program to run , otherwise it might be blocking it. Sometimes the server of the messenger has crashes from time to time but this is very rare.  other than that it could be a virus or something . Do you get any Error messages ???  try to go to the troubleshooting.

You might be behind a firewall so you need to check your connection. If you have a firewall then you'll need to configure it to forward to yahoo messenger.

What is the error it is showing. If it is a virus, use an anti virus software to remove the virus.\n\nOr it may be because that u have previously installed a messenger and that might not have been removed. May be thats why there is a problem in installing the messenger. So completely remove your previous messenger and then try reinstalling your new messenger.\n\nOr if a system file is missing, you have to go to www.microsoft.com check for updates.

The answer depends on what type of machine you are using.  If you are using Windows or Mac, you may have a virus or spyware problem.  If you are on Linux you may want to try Gaim rather than the Yahoo provided Messenger.  Gaim work just the same as Yahoo Messenger, and you can talk to all the same friends -- they don't even need to know that you have switched from Yahoo Messenger.
