Yahoo! IM connection

Yahoo! Instant Messenger is not working quite as it should on trutap at the moment, so you may experience some problems logging in or seeing your list of contacts. Rest assured we're working on the problem right now and will let you know as soon as it's fixed. In the meantime we've got MSN, AOL and ICQ for you to use. Sorry for the inconvenience!

(Update: the Yahoo! problems are fixed now - Happy New Year!)
