Pidgin not connecting to Yahoo IM

[Rodger Bell]

Hello

I am running Pidgin 2.4.1 on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 LTS
I used to be able to access chat for both MSN & Yahoo
But for some reason now I cannot access Yahoo in Pidgin in Linux but can
in Yahoo Messaging client in MSWindows

Would anyone know what might have changed ?
I have tried removing the Yahoo account in Pidgin & re-adding.....I can
see the account but it is greyed out now
I have also removed Pidgin altogether from Linux & re-installed but
still no luck

Help....

regards
Rodger
