Go into preferences, check the "connection" and try different options. You're probably having a firewall issue.

close yahoo messenger and exit from the task bar also and try signing in again. \nIf that does not work, then try going to "connection preferences" in the messenger menu and select 'no network detection'.\nIf that doesnt work either, then u will have to uninstall yahoo and install it again.

Check your system settings.  Also, there's trouble shooting, both on the game website as well as over the phone with one of the store clerks.
