Yeah, myself as well.

Maybe the Chinese Yahoo fanatics (and I say that like there's some other kind) caught wind of this. :)

Traditionally, those CN servers are updated later, after the US servers.

I am using the chinese trick with RTCOMM as well. With an edited host file.

I will be running Pidgin all day today (at least Google works). I will let everyone know when (or if) the server is back on line.

Yep, still getting no response.

But hey, it's not like I have an insane amount of 50 friends like Den has so I have no problem waiting for a fix. :)

Remove "cn." in the edit account option so your pager server reads "scsa.msg.yahoo.com"

It's back to being good to me. :)
