Have you looked at the buglist at http://gaim.sourceforget.net/ ? Anyway
... here's what to do to fix that:

Modify the Yahoo login server - change it from "scs.yahoo.com" to
"cs.yahoo.com". Viola, fixed. :-)

There's still one big outstanding bug affecting me (I'm sure there are
tons of others, but the're not bothering me :-) ) ... the Oscar module,
when used with ICQ, can't receive messages sent from Mac ICQ clients.

So I have to use GnomeICU for ICQ right now. Annoying to have multiple
clients open.
