MemberSomewhat unrelated but still interesting is the fact that just a few days ago Yahoo stock (yhoo) dropped over $7.00 in one day, which broke all time records for the stock. So yahoo messenger isn’t the only thing that’s down. And yes…I bought a whole bunch of the stock because I just know its going to go back up, and so is messenger, right?

I read your referenced article, and to my surprise it says thjat the problem was solved by 1:00 pm PT, which would be 4:00 PM ET, but it is still not available at my place, at 10:42 ET! Also, it said mostly US locations affected, but I was talking to friends in NewZeeland and it was not available there either! So, I am really confused as to what Yahoo is doing!!!!

MemberThat article is indeed 6 years old! Now I’m really impressed with Yahoo!’s president (Jeff Mallett). He must be our generation’s Nostradomus. I wonder if he can help me with this week’s lottery picks?

MemberYahoo Messenger is down world-wide. Germany, UK, Russia etc, and all of US. There was to be an upgrade allowing MSN Messenger users to chat with Yahoo Messenger users.
Other Message Boards are posting rumors that Microsoft is somehow involved. Did Microsoft somehow manage to tamper with Yahoo Messenger in order to elevate it’s MSN Messenger?
Whether this is true or not I do not know – but think about it. World-Wide outage is not just one server – it is ALL of them.
Yahoo has made no comment on this outage

MemberWell on the Yahoo homepage where it lists my friends in the tab… it says I have 5 friends online. I added myself as a friend a long long time ago, and it also lists me as being online so I doubt that is the case.
