Comment:

 Yeah.  Thats what it looks to be.  It ended up righting itself after a bit
 but it was almost a day til I could get back on.  Yahoo has been acting
 really funny these days.

 The closest I could do for sulabh.dev's solution would be to log in using
 Kopete.  I am on pure Linux so there is no Yahoo client for linux (nor one
 I would want to run under Wine).  Ever since they got in bed with
 Microsoft, I have been leery of downloading any of the newer pure Yahoo
 clients.
